Efficiency Measurement of Indian Banking Industry: An Empirical Comparative Analysis

Efficiency in Japanese Banking: an Empirical Analysis

This paper utilises the non-parametric frontier approach, DEA, to analyse the technical and scale efficiency in Japanese banking using a recent cross –section sample. Efficiency analysis is conducted across individual banks, bank types and bank size groups. Following Berger and Humphrey (1997), problem loans are controlled for as an exogenous influence on bank efficiency. Powerful size-efficien...

Efficiency Analysis in the Ghana’s Banking Industry

This study attempted to investigate the level of Bank efficiency in Ghana by using Data Envelope Analysis (DEA). The study revealed that bank efficiency in Ghana has improved after the introduction of financial sector reforms in 1988 which have led to more competitions among banks, increased financial innovation, strict regulatory regime and higher profitability. The operational, technical and ...

Data Envelopment Analysis with Sensitive Analysis and Super-efficiency in Indian Banking Sector

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is non-parametric linear programming (LP) based technique for estimating the relative efficiency of different decision making units (DMUs) assessing the homogeneous type of multiple-inputs and multiple-outputs. The procedure does not require a priori knowledge of weights, while the main concern of this non-parametric technique is to estimate the optimal weights o...

Labor-Use Efficiency in Indian Banking: A Branch Level Analysis

This paper uses Data Envelopment Analysis to measure labor use efficiency of individual branches of a large public sector bank with several thousand branches across India. We find considerable variation in the average levels of efficiency across the four metropolitan regions considered in this study. In this context, we introduce the concept of area or spatial efficiency for each region relativ...
