The Effect of Ownership on Organizational Performance: a Case Study of Banking Sector in Pakistan
Abstract: Aims: The main aims of this research are to provide more empirical evidences for theory of property rights and public choice theory and to test these theories in a new environment i.e. banking sector of Pakistan. This research compares performance of public and private banks in Pakistan on the basis of four performance measures, profitability, liquidity, solvency and efficiency. It also studies the effect of politics on public banks. Method: Mainly quantitative approach is utilized in this thesis to compare performance of public and private banks in Pakistan in terms of profitability, liquidity, solvency and efficiency. Ratio analysis is used for this purpose. Qualitative analysis is based on qualitative study of empirical findings of quantitative analysis with respect to elections and observing lending behavior of public and private banks along with study of net interest margin during election years. Major Findings: The theory of property rights and public choice literature support private ownership for superior performance as compared to public ownership. From empirical findings, very weak support is found for both theories. Out of twelve ratios used in ratio analysis, ten ratios support public ownership for superior performance as compared to private ownership and only two ratios quote that private ownership is superior in performance than public ownership. From empirical findings it can be concluded that performance of public banks is superior to private banks in Pakistan in terms of profitability, liquidity, solvency and efficiency. Similarly, out of twelve ratios, only six ratios provided evidence of effect of elections on performance of public ownership which is a weak support for public choice theory. Moreover, lending behavior of public and private banks along with study of net interest margin has totally ruled out the presence of political influence on public banks. It can be concluded from these empirical findings that either political

    Analysis - The Structure of Corporate Ownership: Causes and Consequences

    This paper provides an analysis of the article “The Structure of Corporate Ownership: Causes and Consequences” by Harold Demsetz and Kenneth Lehn, 1985, Journal of Political Economy, 95(6): 1155-1177, based on the ten basic claims of scientific research and Toulmin’s model of argumentation. To begin with, the question that the researcher proposes to investigate, which is whether there are any significant factors that influence a company’s ownership structure, is relevant because U.S corporations’ ownership structure varies widely and further findings on any significant factor will advance companies’ attempts on maximizing their performance. The reason for instigating this research dated back to Berle and Means, from which Demsetz and Lehn claimed that evidence of a relationship between firm performance and ownership concentration was never found (Demsetz and Lehn, 1985, p.1155). Motivated to shed light on this ongoing topic, the authors have decided to further explore some of the forces that they feel may influence the structure of corporate ownership concentration.…

    Narasimham Committee on Banking Sector Reforms

    Greater autonomy was proposed for the public sector banks in order for them to function with equivalent professionalism as their international counterparts.[11] For this the panel recommended that recruitment procedures, training and remuneration policies of public sector banks be brought in line with the best-market-practices of professional bank management.[4][6] Secondly, the committee recommended GOI equity in nationalized banks be reduced to 33% for increased autonomy.[4][12][13] It also recommended the RBI relinquish its seats on the board of directors of these banks. The committee further added that given that the government nominees to the board of banks are often members of parliament, politicians, bureaucrats, etc., they often interfere in the day-to-day operations of the bank in the form of the behest-lending.[4] As such the committee recommended a review of functions of banks boards with a view to make them responsible for enhancing shareholder value through formulation of corporate strategy and reduction of government equity.[11]…

    Environmental Effects on company Performance

    The political environment under which a firm operates has key impact on the performance of a firm. Political issues that touch on a firm’s operations include regulations, de-regulations, tax policy including rates and incentives, trade control, import restrictions, tariffs, competition regulation, laws governing workplace health and safety, employment, consumer protection, data protection and so forth. Change in taxes such as what happened in Kenya recently with the Kenya Revenue Authority imposing excise duty on each banking and other transactions and re-introducing taxes on certain goods in the market means that for the banking sector the cost of operations have gone up and some banks have passed this cost onto the customer which means that in the short to medium term there is a possibility that some banks may lose customers affecting their projected profit or growth margins.…

    Rural Finance

    While public financial institutions (such as public development banks) are commonly associated with developing countries, in fact they are prevalent in the developed world as well. We study a sample of public financial institutions in industrialized countries and identify dominant trends in their organization and oversight. While practices in developed countries may be a useful reference point, a more nuanced approach, accounting for the disparity of institutional environment, regulatory capacity, and government accountability and effectiveness, may be required in developing countries. Further investment in the accumulation of evidence and formulation of best practices in the organization and oversight of public financial institutions seems warranted and necessary. This paper was prepared while Mr. Ratnovski was working in the Financial Supervision and Regulation Division during January–April 2006. The authors are grateful to Jonathan Fiechter, David Marston, and participants of an MCM seminar in April 2006 for their helpful comments.
