Taiwan provides an interesting environment for studying this issue with its relatively shallow market and natural catastrophe risk in the property-liability (P/L) insurance industry. The results of this investigation suggest that insurer solvency and reinsurance are interdependent. I find that insurers with higher solvency tend to purchase more reinsurance, and insurers with higher reinsurance dependence tend to have a higher level of solvency. Other empirical results show that underwriting risks, business concentration, return on investment (ROI) and business mix have a significant impact on reinsurance. Furthermore, I also find that insurers used less reinsurance after the RBC regime. In addition, firm size, return on asset (ROA), ROI, marine insurance, financial holdings and listed firms have a significant influence on an insurer's solvency. My results have practical implications for the P/L insurance industry and competent authorities in Taiwan.","PeriodicalId":174638,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Financial Services Management","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127646162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, recent research has claimed that Islamic finance as it is currently practised does not effectively promote economic growth. Hence, the objective of this study is to empirically examine the potential effect of Islamic finance in the specific form of Sukuk issuance on the economic growth represented by three proxies, namely Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Gross Capital Formation (GCF) and trade activities. The data were collected from the Islamic Finance Information Services (IFIS) and the World Bank databases, and were subsequently analysed through Toda and Yamamoto Granger Non-Causality test. Accordingly, the findings indicated that the Sukuk financing had no influence on economic growth for GCC countries. This finding has significant implications that are discussed in detail in the final section.","PeriodicalId":174638,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Financial Services Management","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116464581","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used a data set of 459 SMEs split-up over eight sectors of economic activities according to the European NACE classification scheme. The research covers the period of 2008-2012, which gives the five-year period of observation of financial results of selected companies. The efficiency of working capital management was measured by accounts receivables turnover, inventories turnover, accounts payables turnover and cash conversion cycle. Return on assets was used as the profitability variable. The study is based on correlation and regression analysis to analyse data. The results indicate that all working capital components significantly affect Greek SMEs profitability. The paper is organised as follows: in the next section we briefly present the problem based on literature review. This is followed by the presentation of research methodology and the data sources used in the analysis. The results are presented and discussed in Section 3. Last section summarises the conclusions and presents further opportunities for research.","PeriodicalId":174638,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Financial Services Management","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122807472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A set of quantitative indicators are used to examine the performance of Islamic banks towards fostering an inclusive financial system. The results highlight that so far, the performance of Islamic banks on these indicators shows a gap between promise and performance. This study highlights that high average cost of financing and concentration on the corporate sector and upper-class individuals is inconsistent with the goal of circulation of wealth and equitable distribution of income. The paper also identifies that people might need finance for health, education and setting up small businesses, but they cannot be served by Islamic banks with the available product structures. The paper gives a geographical footprint of Islamic banks which shows that they are primarily operating in big urban cities. Finally, it is argued that most of the Islamic banking debt-based products are close, but relatively expensive, substitutes for conventional banking in terms of financial costs.","PeriodicalId":174638,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Financial Services Management","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125367327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main purpose of this paper is to present a critical reflection on the debate around corporate capital structure irrelevance that was triggered by Modigliani and Miller theorem in 1958, while taking in consideration the literature, theoretical and empirical findings and the recent global financial crisis (i.e. debt crisis). The paper will briefly review and discuss alternative theories of capital structure, such as the traditional view, the trade-off theory and the pecking order theory in light of reality and perfect capital market hypothesis. The paper starts by defining the concept of capital structure, followed by discussing the assumptions of perfect capital markets under which 'the Modigliani and Miller's irrelevance theory' was originally conceptualised. It finally reflects on the findings before proceeding with the paper's conclusion.","PeriodicalId":174638,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Financial Services Management","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115067738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, firms must seek to align their strategies such as market innovation with the prevailing business environment to achieve competitive advantage. We investigate the moderating effect of three environmental factors, regulatory regime, competitive intensity and customer demand, on the relationship between innovation and competitive advantage creation in financial services firms. Data were collected from the Ghana's financial services sector with a focus on banking and insurance institutions. Constructs were validated through confirmatory factor analysis while robust regressions estimates were run to test their hypothesised relationships. We found that both competitive intensity and regulatory regime positively increase the effect of market innovation on competitive advantage. It was also found that the interaction between competitive intensity and regulatory regime has a positive effect while the interaction between customer demand and regulatory regime dampens the positive relationship between market innovation and competitive advantage creation. The concurrent occurrences of the three factors were found to have a negative moderating effect.","PeriodicalId":174638,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Financial Services Management","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126302635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper aims at determining the factors that influence environmental performance of banks in Bangladesh. Bank's Environmental Performance Score (EnPS) is calculated based on the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Sustainability Guidelines, 2002. All the necessary data are collected from the content analysis of the audited annual reports of 31 scheduled commercial banks for the financial year ending December 2012. Applying multiple regression technique this study finds that bank's credit rating score is positively related to EnPS, whereas premium in share price and bank's longevity in service are negatively associated with EnPS. Contrary to the common perception that a large and highly profitable bank would be environmentally more concerned, the result shows no such association between these variables. Policy-makers, therefore, may urge large and highly profitable banks to lead environmental initiatives towards green banking revolution in Bangladesh.","PeriodicalId":174638,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Financial Services Management","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132786212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
