Meanwhile, in countries with weak governance, ownership concentration persists even as firms get larger. Our findings support the theory that a firm’s choice of optimal ownership structure depends on its quality of governance, which includes both vertical and horizontal governance.

The results reveal that income diversification enhances banks' profit and risk-adjusted profit. On the other hand, corruption significantly reduces bank performance. We find that the positive impact of income diversification on performance is undermined in countries with a high level of corruption. We also examine the effect of corruption on the diversification–performance nexus across bank ownership groups using subsamples of local, regional African, and non-African banks.
