In 2014, FERC adopted a new theory of capital markets for the purpose of setting authorized returns-on-equity: that all observed dividends and interest rates were anomalous and therefore unreliable ...indicators of the returns necessary for investors to hold the stocks and bonds of transmission owners. The new theory, used to justify higher authorized ROEs, rejected evidence of fundamental conditions in capital markets and explicitly adopted arguments by investor-owned utilities regarding unreliable markets. After a judicial remand, FERC abandoned the new theory, but consumers in New England and the Midwest were arbitrarily charged hundreds of millions of dollars over several years due to unjust and unreasonable rates for transmission service.
Using stock returns from a sample of 94 countries over the period from 22 January to 24 March 2022, we document a negative relationship between the Ukraine–Russia war and world stock market returns. ...We thus provide the first empirical evidence.
•We provide the first empirical evidence of the effect of the Ukraine–Russia war on world stock market returns.•The war has negatively impacted the world’s stock indices and this effect was more significant after the invasion of Ukraine.•The countries bordering Ukraine and Russia were the most affected, as were the UN countries that condemned the war.
•China's banks are more cost efficient than profit efficient.•Efficiency has improved over time.•Adjustment costs may exceed efficiency gains.•Size, market power, ownership, and listing help explain ...efficiency of banks.
This paper examines the cost and profit efficiency of four types of Chinese commercial banks over the period from 2002 to 2013. We find that the cost and profit efficiencies improved across all types of Chinese domestic banks in general and the banks are more profit-efficient than cost efficient. Foreign banks are the most cost efficient but the least profit efficient. The profit efficiency gap between foreign banks and domestic banks has widened after the World Trade Organization transition period (2007–2013). Ownership structure, market competition, bank size, and listing status are the main determinants of the efficiency of Chinese banks. We also find a causal relationship between efficiency and SROE by using the panel auto regression method. The evidence from the shadow return on equity (SROE) suggests that policy makers should be cautious of the adjustment costs imposed by the recapitalization process, which offsets the efficiency gains.

•ESG practices' impact on financial profitability varies.•The social pillar score negatively affects the ROE.•The environmental pillar score negatively affects the ROE in low quantiles.•The ...governance pillar score has a consistently negative impact on ROE.•Policymakers should take into account the ESG-financial performance trade off.
We examine the impact of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices on financial performance among Nifty 50 companies in India from 2015 to 2022. Using fixed-effects panel quantile regression, we observe that the relationship between ESG practices and financial profitability varies across the return on equity (ROE) distribution. While the environmental pillar score and the governance pillar score consistently negatively impact ROE across almost all quantiles with high statistical significance, the social pillar score exhibits mostly an insignificant relationship. Its impact is negative but only mildly statistically significant in the lower end of the ROE distribution. The findings and their implications are important to investors, corporate executives, and policymakers.
The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of various factors on the level of non-performing loans (NPL) and, to determine the moderating role of efficiency on the relationship between ...different factors and NPL in China. The current study addressed four important factors to examine the role in relation to the NPL. These factors include; return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), economic sustainability and political instability index. Furthermore, the moderating role of efficiency is addressed between these factors and NPL. Secondary data is used in this study to consider the empirical results. Secondary data related to ROA, ROE, economic sustainability and political instability index is collected from different sources. Consistent with the literature, we found significant effect of ROA, ROE, economic sustainability and political instability index on NPL. Banking sector of China is majorly influenced by these factors due to the effect on NPLs. Furthermore, the efficiency has contribution to the NPLs as moderating variable. Results of this study are helpful for the management of banking industry to resolve various issues related to NPLs.

The results of the study showed that the average of the return on equity index according to DuPont model of the Palestinian Islamic Bank was 12.5% compared to the Arab Islamic Bank, which scored 6.8%, this is due to the high rate of return on assets and financial leverage in the Palestinian Islamic Bank, the results also indicated that the financing risks in the Palestinian Islamic Bank are greater with sufficient provision, As a result, its returns increased compared to the Arab Islamic Bank. The study also showed results that reflect the efficiency and remarkable success of the Islamic banks in the process of managing credit risks. This reflected positively on the performance index of those banks by building good quality credit portfolios, which enabled them to compete with traditional banks. The study concluded that Islamic banks should diversify and develop their financing instruments and direct them towards productive investment opportunities and raise the degree of cooperation in the field of credit information exchange. هدفت الدراسة الى تقييم أداء المصارف الإسلامية الفلسطينية لكفاءة إدارة مخاطر التمويل وربطها مع جودة المحافظ الاستثمارية وفقا لنموذج العائد على حقوق الملكية المعدل )دوبونت) والنسب المالية المصرفية، كذلك التعرف على أنواع المخاطر المصرفية ومخاطر صيغ التمويل الإسلامي، وحجم التوظيفات باستخدام صيغ التمويل الإسلامية، ولتحقيق أهداف الدراسة استخدم الباحث المنهج الوصفي التحليلي والمنهج المقارن لدراسة الحالة، ولمعالجة البيانات استخدم الباحث برنامج SPSS، وتكونت عينة الدراسة من المصرف الاسلامي الفلسطيني والإسلامي العربي باعتبارهما من المصارف الإسلامية الناشطة في فلسطين، وأظهرت نتائج الدراسة أن المتوسط الحسابي لمؤشر العائد على حقوق الملكية وفق نموذج دوبونت للمصرف الاسلامي الفلسطيني قد سجل ما نسبته 12.5% مقارنة مع المصرف الاسلامي العربي الذي سجل ما نسبته 6.8%، ويعود السبب في ذلك إلى ارتفاع معدل العائد على الاصول والرفع المالي للمصرف، كما دلت النتائج أن مخاطر التمويل في المصرف الاسلامي الفلسطيني هي أكبر مع وجود مخصصات كافية، وبالنتيجة ارتفاع عوائده مقارنة مع المصرف الاسلامي العربي، كما بينت الدراسة أن مؤشر العائد على حقوق الملكية المعدل نموذج متكامل لتقييم الأداء ولوصف وقياس العلاقة التبادلية بين العائد والمخاطرة، وجاءت النتائج لتعكس الكفاءة والنجاح الملحوظ للمصارف الاسلامية الفلسطينية في عمليه إدارة مخاطر الائتمان، مما انعكس ذلك ايجابياً على مؤشر الاداء لتلك المصارف من خلال بناء محافظ استثمارية ذات جودة جيدة مكنها من منافسة المصارف التقليدية، وقد خلصت الدراسة أن على المصارف الإسلامية أن تنوع وتطور من أدواتها التمويلية وتوجيهها نحو الفرص الاستثمارية الانتاجية وأن ترفع من درجة التعاون في مجال تبادل المعلومات الائتمانية.
The current study investigates the association between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and financial performance (FP), and discusses the driving motives of banks to engage in CSR. Three ...motives, namely, strategic choices, altruism, and greenwashing, suggest that the relationship between CSR and FP is positive, non-negative, and non-existent, respectively. We obtained our sample, which covered 2003–2009, from the Ethical Investment Research Service (EIRIS) databank and Bankscope database. The data consists of 162 banks in 22 countries. We then classified the banks into four types based on their degree of engagement in CSR. This study proposes the use of an extended version of the Heckman two-step regression, in which the first step adopts a multinomial logit model, and the second step estimates the performance equation with the inverse Mills ratio generated by the first step. The empirical results show that CSR positively associates with FP in terms of return on assets, return on equity, net interest income, and non-interest income. In contrast, CSR negatively associates with non-performing loans. Hence, strategic choice is the primary motive of banks to engage in CSR.
Satisfying the consumer and contributing to societal well-being have been globally acknowledged, and these developments consequently boost corporate image, attract investors, increase stock prices, ...enhance firm value, and enable industrial and other firms to contribute to national development. This paper examines how product responsibility and philanthropy affect the performance of industrial goods firms in Nigeria. A sample of 7 firms was selected from 24 listed firms after employing a judgmental sampling technique and using secondary data and a quantitative research method. Data validation and analysis were aided by econometric views statistical software, panel data regression, fixed and random effects estimators, stationarity test, cross-section dependence test, Durbin-Watson test, and Hausman test. The study revealed that investment in product responsibility, as evidenced by the rising stock turnover rate, is value-enhancing in Nigeria {B1 = 0.076807, P = 0.0171 or P < 0.05}, while philanthropic donation is value destroying {B1 = –0.369535, P = 0.5817 or P > 0.05}. It was concluded that consumers’ confidence in corporate institutions can enhance corporate value, while investment in philanthropy is not usually value-enhancing when done irresponsibly and non-strategically. The study, therefore, recommended that investment in product responsibility should be consolidated to sustain the rising stock turnover rate, while investment in philanthropy should be done strategically and responsibly to make it value-enhancing.
