| description | The paper presents the productivity change of Malaysian banks for the period 2006-09
by employing Malmquist productivity index. The results reveal that throughout the study
period, the productivity of Islamic banks (10.4%) was higher than that of the conventional
banks (0.9%). Also, on an average, productivity across Malaysian banking industry
increased at an annual rate of 5.4%, which was mainly due to technical change rather
than efficiency change. Therefore, this study suggests that Malaysian commercial banking
industry can further increase its total factor productivity by improving its efficiency
component. |
