ASSESSING THE PERFORMANCE OF NON-BANKING FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS – ON SELECTING THE RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Journal Title: Revista Romana de Statistica - Year 2012, Vol 59, Issue 12
Abstract
Choosing the appropriate research methodology is an important procedure in ensuring a rigorous scientific research, especially for empirical analyses represented by economic phenomena studies. The scientifi c literature shows different research methodologies devoted to developing models of benchmarking the performance of different entities. We present the main methodologies of social sciences and system development research by showing how they can be applied in a less exploited area of research: assessing comparatively the performance of non-banking financial institutions.
