The Trend of National and Regional Banks Profitability and Determinants——An Empirical Study Based on the 2006-2016 Data

Abstract

Abstract:

Based on the bank operating practices, this paper qualitatively analyzes the business indices of 17 national banks and 88 regional banks from 2006 to 2016. A fixed effect model is established, classical least squares method and the generalized method of moments are applied for the quantitative comparative analysis on the capital profitability and asset profitability of the two types of banks. The qualitative analysis indicates that bank profitability is affected by peer competitions, external environment, and internal operating factors, such as asset composition, cost and risk management. In addition, the quantitative analysis shows the profitability of the commercial banks is obviously influenced by inner factors including the ability of asset liability collocation, management, risk control, and the industry factors such as the level of market concentration and field development, as well as the outer factors like monetary policies and macroeconomic impact. In the end, this research proposes that the strategic key to raise commercial banks' profitability is to develop the risk control ability, improve management skill, optimize asset liability allocation, concentrate on market competition and regulate bank's operation.

Key words: national and regional banks, profitability influencing factors, empirical study
