“…However, the results of this study do not support either of these hypotheses and are statistically insignificant. These results are consistent with the past studies such as the findings of Koju et al (2019) Lee et al (2019 and Tanasković and Jandrić (2015). Regarding limitation of current research, it was limited to four ASEAN countries due to data availability issues.…”

“…Thus their credit risks are expected to be moderated. Koju et al (2019) highlight the importance of economic policies (e.g., fiscal policy, monetary policy, industrial policy, and trade openness policy) in improving credit quality and reducing loan default rates. Fu et al (2021) examine the determinants of credit default swap (CDS) spreads in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan between 2005 and 2012 and elucidate that credit default is determined by firm performance and macroeconomic conditions.…”

“…Such studies have explored the impact of bank-specific factors such as risk, market power, size and capitalization on bank performance. More recently, research has focused on the impact of macroeconomic factors on bank performance (Koju et al, 2019;Nieto, 2019;Serrano, 2019;Moudud-Ul-Huq, 2019;Arham et al, 2020;Rashid and Khalid, 2020;Nugroho et al, 2020;Elmawazini et al, 2020;Anwar et al,2020). Moreover, to date, empirical research has concentrated on a specific country, mainly the banking system of the USA (Berger, 1995;Teixeira et al, 2020) and the banking systems in other developed countries such as the UK (Valverde and Fern andez, 2007), Finland (Huhtilainen, 2020) and Italy (Barra and Zotti, 2019).…”
