A COMPARISON OF EFFICIENCY IN PRIVATE AND GOVERNMENT BANKS USING A PARAMETRIC MODEL

Seyed Komail Tayebi; Mohammad Omidinezhad; Abbas Motahari Nejad

Volume 13, Issue 41 , February 2010, Pages 1-28

Abstract
  The purpose of this research is to measure cost and profit efficiency for the Iran's commercial and public banks. We also determine time variant efficiency factors for period 1381-1384 (2001-2004). To measure the efficiency, we use stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) and error component model following ...  Read More

PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT USING AN INTEGRATED MODEL OF SUPER EFFICIENCY MODELS AND MANAGERS PREFERENCES; THE CASE OF MASKAN BANK

Abdolrasool Ghasemi

Volume 13, Issue 41 , February 2010, Pages 29-51

Abstract
  DEA models that calculate the efficiency index with respect to inputs and outputs are commonly used in recent years. Although flexibility is one of the key characteristics of DEA models, specially where data is abundant, they overestimate the efficiency in small samples. Furthermore, they do not take ...  Read More
