Assessing the influence of Corporate Governance, Ownership Concentration and Bank Size on the Firm’s Value and Bank’s Performance: Evidence from Pakistan

Abstract

This empirical study examines the impact of corporate governance, ownership structure and bank size on the bank’s performance and firm’s value of the banking sector in Pakistan. The data is extracted for 17 commercial banks listed at the Pakistan Stock Exchange for the period of 2006-2016. The results show that corporate governance and bank size positively affect bank’s performance while ownership concentration does not have any effect on bank’s performance. Moreover, firm’s value is positively affected by ownership concentration, while it is not affected by corporate governance and bank size.
