“…The level of indebtedness is taken as a control variable. This is due to the need to calculate the degree of pressure that debt can have on the strategic decisions of the company in adopting different levels of risk (Liu & Hung, 2006).…”

Using the data extracted from BankScope database of 92 banks in GCC (27 Islamic Banks and 65 Conventional Banks) for the period from 2006 to 2009, this study intends to investigate the impact of the financial crisis on the performance of both Islamic and conventional banks and test whether Islamic bank performance is better before and during the crisis.The study employs T-Test to observe any significant difference between Islamic and Conventional banks performance before and during the crisis.Three ratios were used to represent bank profitability measures which are return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and net interest margin (NIM) while two variables were used to measures each one of the bank-specific characteristics,: Equity and Tangible Equity as measures for Capital Structure, Loans and Liquid Assets as measures for Liquidity, and Deposits and Overheads for Liability. The results showed that the financial crisis had a negative impact on profitability of both Islamic and conventional banks but the Islamic banks were more profitable than conventional bank during the financial crisis but not statistically significant. The profitability determinants behaved differently for Islamic and conventional banks during the crisis. By applying the t-test it is found that the Islamic banks had better capital structure than the conventional banks during the financial crisis while the conventional banks had better liquidity and liability ratios than the Islamic banks. No strong statistical evidence found that Islamic banking has weathered the financial crisis than conventional counterparts in all performance measures.

“…As mentioned, ROA and ROE measure profitability of hotel companies, whereas stock price can evaluate hotel stock performance. In addition, we follow Boubakri, Cosset, Fischer, and Guedhami (2005), Kesner (1987), Liu and Hung (2006) and Otchere and Chan (2003) to use several accounting/financial ratios to calculate a comprehensive measure, or score, of corporate performance that can represent the overall financial performance of hotel companies. Six accounting ratios, including debt-equity ratio, total asset turnover, current ratio, quick ratio, ROA, and ROE, are used to calculate a comprehensive score based on factor analysis.…”

The economy, tourism growth and corporate performance in the Taiwanese hotel industry

a b s t r a c tThis study investigates the impact of economy and tourism growth on the corporate performance of tourist hotels in Taiwan. The indicators of corporate performance under consideration are occupancy rate (OPR), return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), stock return, and the overall financial performance measured by a comprehensive score (a combined measure of asset management, profitability, short-term solvency or liquidity and long-term solvency based on factor analysis). The effects of changes in the state of economy (real GDP growth rate, DGDP) and tourism growth (growth rate of total foreign tourist arrivals, DTA) on the corporate performance of tourist hotels are then examined via panel regression tests. Test results show that both DGDP and DTA are significant explanatory factors of OPR, but only DTA can strongly explain ROA and ROE. However, neither DGDP nor DTA have a significant influence on hotel stock performance. Further, the economic factor ðDGDPÞ is slightly more crucial than the industry factor ðDTAÞ in describing the overall financial performance in the Taiwanese hotel industry. Empirical findings offer valuable information for government tourism policymakers and tourist hotel owners and managers.
