“…Furthermore, the empirical findings indicate that state-owned commercial banks are the main drag of bank profitability in China whereas joint-stock commercial banks tend to be more profitable. Heffernan and Fu (2008) use economic value added and net interest margin to examine the determinants of performance for four different types of banks (stateowned, joint-stock, city commercial and rural commercial banks). The empirical findings suggest that bank listing and efficiency exert significant and positive influence on bank performance.…”

This study examines the determinants of bank profitability in China over the period [2003][2004][2005][2006][2007][2008][2009]. The determinants are divided into three groups: bank-specific, industryspecific and macroeconomic variables. The two-step General Method of Moments (GMM) system estimator is used. The results show that there is a positive relationship between bank profitability, cost efficiency, banking sector development, stock market development and inflation. We report that low profitability can be explained by higher volume of non-traditional activity and higher taxation. Moreover, we confirm that there is a competitive environment in Chinese banking industry. Furthermore, we propose policy actions that should be taken to improve bank profitability in China.2

“…Furthermore, the study shows that there are positive impacts of economic growth [3] and inflation on bank profitability. The system GMM estimation is used by Heffernan and Fu (2008) to investigate the effects of bank-specific and macroeconomic determinants [4] of profitability in China. The results show that GDP growth and unemployment rate are significantly related to bank profitability in China, while the effects of non-traditional activity and bank size on bank profitability are insignificant.…”

This article examines the effect of GDP growth on bank profitability in China over the period [2003][2004][2005][2006][2007][2008][2009]. The one-step system GMM estimator is used to test the persistence of profitability in Chinese banking industry. The empirical findings suggest that cost efficiency is positively related to bank profitability, while lower profitability can also be explained by higher taxes paid by banks. In addition, there is a negative relationship between GDP growth and bank profitability. Furthermore, the results show that (1) the profitability in Chinese banking industry is significantly affected by the level of non-performing loans, and (2) Chinese banks with higher level of capital have lower profitability. Finally, we find that the departure from a perfect competitive market structure in Chinese banking industry is relatively small.
