Diversification of Bank Profitability and Bankruptcy Risk in ASIA

Abstract

This study aims to determine the bank interest margin and non-interest income in 25 countries in ASIA in the study period 1993 and 2020. This study uses the quantitative method Generalized Method of Moments (GMM). Prudence in developing the banking business by banking business actors is essential in preventing a systemic financial crisis in the future, such as the experience of the Asian financial crisis in 1997 and the subprime mortgage crisis in 2008. Bank interest margins and non-interest income are both required in maintaining bank cash inflow.
