The Effect of the Common Bond and Membership Expansion on Credit Union Risk

This paper empirically examines differences in credit union risk profiles based on membership type and membership expansion via select employee groups (SEGs). We find that (1) occupational credit unions have a greater exposure to concentration risk, which they hedge by holding greater proportions of capital, (2) the presence of SEGs is negatively related to credit union capital ratios and positively related to loan–to–share ratios, and (3) the number of SEGs and the proportion of loan delinquencies are positively related. We conclude that credit union membership expansion results in reduced concentration risk and expanded investment opportunities, but also dilutes the informational advantages associated with tight common bonds.     

农村信用社产权制度改革:理论、绩效与出路

农村信用社产权制度改革不仅是一个金融问题,而且是一个复杂的社会问题.长期以来我国农村信用社按照合作制进行规范绩效差的主要原因是,农村信用社产权制度改革的国家偏好和农民的接受程度之间存在着巨大的矛盾.文章建议通过稳定农村信用社的经营、拉长农村信用社产权制度改革的周期、完善农村信用社产权制度改革的外部环境、增加农村信用社产权制度改革的途径等四个方面的措施来推动我国农村信用社的产权制度改革.     

德国农村合作金融模式对我国的启示

农村信用社是我国农村金融体系的重要组成部分。经过50多年发展,农村信用社已成为我国农村地区最庞大的金融组织,但其服务职能尚需增强,经营管理模式有待改善。因此,积极研究借鉴国外发达国家农村合作金融的成功模式,对促进我国农村金融改革具有重要意义。     

加强农村信用社金融统计报表质量的实践探索

长期以来农村信用社一直是金融支持“三农”发展的主要力量,因此农村信用社的数据质量对一个地区整体的金融支持“三农”数据质量会有重要影响。为提高农村信用社金融统计报表的质量,确保对本地区金融支持“三农”情况的准确把握,人民银行通化市中心支行通过督促辖内金融机构认真落实人民银行各项金融统计制度,积极推进金融统计标准化工作,并针对辖区内农村信用社报表错误比例较高的现象开发了《农村信用社涉农贷款报表白动生成系统》,该系统可实现对农村信用社贷款逐笔自动筛选、归类,有效甄别农村信用社涉农贷款报表科目归类错误,准确测算辖区涉农贷款规模,为提升整体履职水平创造了有利条件。     

不同市场结构下农村信用社经营绩效研究

本文对陕西省85家农村信用社市场份额与经营绩效的关系进行分析。整体来讲,农村信用社贷款市场份额与其经营绩效呈负相关。进一步分析不同市场集中度情况,贷款占比50%以上的农村信用社市场份额与经营绩效负相关,而贷款占比50%以下的农村信用社两指标正相关。这就表明应建立适度竞争的县域农村金融市场,以提高农信社经营效率,充分发挥其主力军作用,从而尽快构建现代农村金融体系。

农村信用社贷款利率定价面临的挑战与对策

本文以广西北海市农村信用社为例,将其贷款利率水平与全国金融机构的贷款利率水平进行比较.结论表明,农村信用社与其他金融机构的贷款利率之间是一种负相关关系,两者存在比较稳定的竞争状态.但由于农村信用社贷款利率定价受到内外部因素的制约,面对其他金融机构进入农村信贷市场的竞争,以高利率为支撑的农村信用社难以适应利率完全市场化的...     

Scale Economies in Credit Unions: Accounting for Subsidies Is Important

In 1998, the Credit Union Services Corporation Australia Limited (CUSCAL) recommended that Australian credit unions with assets below $5 million should consider merging with larger credit unions. This industry position is at odds with empirical studies, which find little evidence of increasing returns to scale in credit unions. However, an important bias in previous studies of scale economies in credit unions has been the omission of credit union subsidies. This paper shows that the failure to account for subsidies biases the results toward finding diseconomies of scale. After correcting for the subsidy bias, there is very strong evidence of increasing returns to scale in a sample of New South Wales credit unions, supporting the industry recommendation.     

股份合作制：中西部农村信用合作社改革方向

关于农村信用合作社改革与发展方向的争议很多。文章首先分析中西部农村信用合作社面临的实际运行机制与合作金融原则、农村资金外流与服务“三农”宗旨、较低抗险能力与较大风险压力、较低服务能力与较高服务需求等四大矛盾看其改革方向;然后从发挥自身优势回归“合作”属性、尊重资本本性增强自身实力、增强造血功能优化治理结构、提升服务能力满足服务需求、优化内部结构把握改革方向等五个方面论述中西部农村信用合作社坚持股份合作制改革方向的绝对必要性;最后提出坚持股份合作制改革的战略性思路：坚守合作制原则并构建股份制产权和治理结构,积极转变经营模式并主动拓宽利润来源渠道,联系政府依靠农民并加快健全内外监管体系,稳步增加服务种类并不断优化支农服务方式。

异地贷款的目标市场与农村信用社跨县经营的边界设置

异地贷款在促进区域经济发展的同时,极大地拓展了银行盈利空间,分散了信贷风险,降低了营运成本。异地贷款对于银行绩效的改进对于地方性金融机构业务发展具有重要启示意义。目前,山东省农村信用社经营范围普遍局限于本地区,应该鼓励其积极发展异地业务,实现资金跨区域流动。鉴于农村信用社与股份制银行存在诸多差异,因此异地业务模式也应有所区别,主要表现在异地业务首先在本市之内跨县经营,目标客户锁定县域优质中小企业,以银团贷款作为组织方式,根据客户风险制定贷款利率。     

农信社推动社会主义新农村建设的策略选择

发挥农村金融主力军作用,推进社会主义新农村建设,是农村信用社面临的一项重要任务。根据建设社会主义新农村的要求,农村信用社支持新农村建设要有“新思路、新举措、新产品、新方式、新环境”的“五新”战略,以稳步推进社会主义新农村建设。

The Law of Proportionate Effect: The Growth of the UK Credit Union Movement at National and Regional Level

Abstract:   This study examines credit union size‐growth relationships within the context of Gibrat's law of proportionate effect. This relates to the hypothesis that the growth of each firm in each period is random. The analysis covers the period 1994 to 2000 and is undertaken separately for the United Kingdom (UK) and its regions, Northern Ireland, England & Wales and Scotland. Sample attrition is a characteristic of the data and to avoid the problem of survivorship bias the inverse of the Mill's ratio, obtained from a probit regression for surviving credit unions, is introduced into the estimating relationship. In terms of the empirical results, little evidence emerged to support the law of proportionate effect as a theoretical paradigm. Although not universal, three broad findings emerged. First, small credit unions on average grow faster than their larger counterparts, although there was also some evidence of non‐linearity in this relationship. Secondly, growth persistence pertained with credit unions which experienced above average growth (below average growth) in one period, experiencing above average growth (below average growth) in the next. Thirdly, variability of growth was not independent of size with the cross‐sectional variance of the error term inversely related to size suggesting that small credit unions have greater growth variability than larger ones.
