This paper empirically investigates the causes of bank failures in Japan and Indonesia. Using logistic regression analysis of financial ratios, we explore the usefulness of domestic bank failure prediction models with a cross-country model that allows for cross-correlation of the error terms....

This paper examines the monthly efficiency and productivity of listed Indonesian banks and their market performance through the prism of two modelling techniques, efficiency and super-efficiency, over the period January 2006 to July 2007. Within this research strategy we employ Tone’s (2001)...

In this study we utilise a non-parametric, slacks-based model (SBM) approach to analyse efficiency and productivity changes for Indonesian banks over the period January 2006 to July 2007. Efficiency scores and Malmquist productivity indices are estimated using the approach for efficiency and...

In one of the first stand-alone studies covering the whole of the Indonesian banking industry, and utilising a unique dataset provided by the Indonesian central bank, this paper analyses the levels of intermediation-based efficiency obtaining during 2007. Using Tone’s (2001) input-oriented,...

In this study, we utilise a new, non-parametric efficiency measurement approach which combines the semi-oriented radial measure data envelopment analysis (SORM DEA) approach for dealing with negative data (Emrouznejad et al., 2010) with the slacks-based efficiency measure of Tone (2001, 2002),...

This paper analyses the concept of financial system stability and how it is practiced as one of the key objectives of a central bank. The paper discusses five main topics related to financial system stability: (i) what is financial system stability and why it is important; (ii) central bank...

In this study, we utilize a nonparametric efficiency measurement approach which combines the Semi-Oriented Radial Measure-Data Envelopment Analysis (SORM-DEA) approach for dealing with negative data (Emrouznejad et al., 2010) with the Slacks-Based Efficiency Measures (SBM) of Tone (2001, 2002)...
