Bank computing in a changing economic environment: the IBIS project in New Zealand

This paper examines a major bank computing redevelopment attempted in New Zealand in the 1980s - the IBIS project. After the expenditure of some hundreds of millions of dollars this project was not proceeded with and this paper looks at the factors that led to its eventual failure. We find that dreams of banking technology can be as costly as other failures experienced by banks, and that banks must have regard to the competitive environment in building their computer systems.     

外资银行的专利权竞争战略引介

利用专利制度,通过专利权来瓜分和占领一国金融市场,是目前外资银行全球竞争的一个利器。国外在中国申请银行业专利的总数在不断增长,其中发明专利占比较高,而国内申请专利的热点多为实用新型。国外申请的专利在未来银行技术发展趋势的重点和热点的商业方法专利中占比较高,如电子货币、管理系统以及金融安全技术方面。国外银行商业方法专利的技术重点首先是在银行基础设施方面,其次是在银行业务方面。

Commercial Banks in the Securities Business: A Review

This paper analyses the potential effects of commercial banks' expansion into the securities business in the context of the contemporary theory of financial intermediation. The analysis focuses on the gains claimed to emerge with that expansion, particularly the gains due to information advantages and economies of scope, and on the costs also claimed to arise with it; namely, those due to conflicts of interest and safety and soundness considerations. The paper ends with a discussion on how these effects depend on the location of the securities unit within the banking conglomerate.     

The patterns of cross-border bank mergers and shareholdings in OECD countries

In recent years there has been a surge in mergers and acquisitions (M&As) in all sectors of economic activity. Cross-border operations have followed this trend, creating global companies operating in all major world markets. In this paper we study the pattern of cross-border M&As in the banking industry relative to the non-financial sector of the economy and investigate which factors make it more likely that a bank will expand its activities abroad. We find that cross-border M&As are rarer in banking than in other sectors, possibly owing to the importance of information asymmetries in banking relationships and to regulatory restrictions. Using data on almost 2500 banks from 29 OECD countries, we also show that the most significant features of banks with foreign equity interests relate to efficiency: banks with cross-border shareholdings are on average larger, more profitable, and based in countries with a more highly developed banking market.     

外资银行在拉美国家银行改革中的作用

20世纪80年代末至90年代初,受“华盛顿共识”影响,拉美国家开始了大规模的银行私有化改革。1994年末的墨西哥金融危机之后,为了缓解危机和提高银行经营效率,多数拉美国家在银行私有化改革中积极鼓励外资银行进入。对于新兴市场国家而言,盲目地西化,照抄照搬发达国家的经济模式不利于本国经济的健康发展。只有依据经济规律,根据本国实际采取适合自己发展水平和管理水平的金融体系,各个经济要素才能实现最优配置和利益的最大化。

广东银行业面临的外资银行竞争及对策研究

加入WTO后,外资银行加快了在广东市场的布局,机构数和资产规模逐年增长.外资银行在广东的大力发展对广东本地的中资银行在中间业务、客户以及人才等方面带来极大的挑战和竞争.中资银行要采取各种措施积极应对,才能在竞争中处于不败之地.     

外资银行进入中国市场的时机选择研究

本文运用生存模型,实证检验了外资银行进入中国市场的时机确定及其影响因素,结果发现,规模越大、资本量越充足及对中国市场的经验越丰富的外资银行越早进入中国市场;同时外资银行母国对中国的投资规模越大、与中国的双边贸易额越高,外资银行越早进入中国市场。另外,研究还发现亚洲地区的银行业进入中国市场并没有明显的先行优势。     

金融新常态对中小银行资产负债管理的挑战

经济金融环境的变化对中小商业银行资产负债管理提出了挑战。在对中小银行的特征进行分析的基础上,明确其优势和劣势,并从利率市场化、存款保险制度、互联网金融、金融创新、巴塞尔协议Ⅲ五个角度,探讨金融新常态对资产负债管理的冲击。最后,提出完善中小银行资产负债管理的建议,推动中小银行从资产负债的“被动管理、分离管理、表内管理”向“主动管理、统一管理、全面管理转变”。     

在华外资银行组织模式选择

本文通过二元logit离散选择模型,以面临分行和子行选择的80家外资银行为样本,检验影响在华外资银行组织模式选择的因素。研究发现,影响外资银行改制的主要因素是该外资银行的国际化经营经验、在中国从事经营活动的时间、母国在华直接投资以及母国与中国的文化地理距离,而母行的规模及其组织模式偏好的影响不显著。本文据此对中国银行业监管者和中资银行提出了相关启示。     

论国有上市银行独立董事制度的完善

在银行业逐步开放的背景下,国家开放外资参股国有商业银行的主要目的是通过战略投资者的参股改善国有银行的治理水平。本文通过考察外资参股国有商业银行推行独立董事制度的部分实践并结合国内外关于独立董事制度的相关经验,提出独立董事在国有商业银行中的主要功能定位应不同于一般的上市公司,应主要发挥保护存款人利益,关注银行风险的作用。文章还对商业银行独立董事制度的建构以及如何协调独立董事与现有银行的外部监事制度的关系提出建议。     

The effect of foreign entry and ownership structure on the Philippine domestic banking market

We examine the response of domestic Philippine banks to the relaxation of foreign entry regulations that occurred in the Philippines. We find evidence that foreign bank entry is associated with a reduction in interest rate spreads and bank profits, but only for those domestic banks that are affiliated to a family business group. Foreign entry corresponds more generally with improvements in operating efficiencies, but a deterioration of loan portfolios. Overall, we conclude that foreign competition compels domestic banks to be more efficient, to focus operations due to increased risk, and to become less dependent on relationship-based banking practices.     

Ex-dividend Day Pricing in New Zealand

Controversy continues over the question of tax clientele effects in the pricing of shares that pay dividends. The empirical results remain inconclusive, with variations in testing methods and sample formation the probable causes of much of the variation in outcomes. This study focuses on testing for the presence of a tax clientele effect consistent with prior tests for the same effect using a sample from a particular tax regime period in New Zealand in which companies could pay either or both taxable and non-taxable dividends. The results are generally consistent with the presence of a tax clientele effect in the New Zealand market for the time period, while providing essentially no support for the short term trading hypothesis.

A Decade in Review: New Zealand's Experience with Resource Accounting and Budgeting

Ten years before the United Kingdom introduced RAB a similar regime had been introduced in New Zealand. What evidence is there, then, that the experience with RAB has lived up to the promises made of it? While the speed with which RAB was introduced in New Zealand may make it appear easy, there were a number of theoretical and practical accounting and auditing issues involved in pioneering these developments. This paper explains how these difficulties were overcome, the benefits achieved, the outstanding issues to be resolved, and some new directions currently being proposed.
