Journal Title: Eurasian Journal of Business and Economics - Year 2018, Vol 11, Issue 22

Abstract

This paper attempts to analyse the relationships between risk-taking, capital regulation and performance in banking sector of Bangladesh. We use Generalized Methods of Moments (GMM) in an unbalanced panel data using 38 commercial banks of Bangladesh for a period of 2007-2016. The empirical results show a significant negative relation between risk taking and capital regulation. Results also reveal that there is a significant positive relation between capital regulation and performance, and a significant negative relation between risk and performance. This study provides various suggestions about risk management and capital adequacy for the regulators, stakeholders and government
