Impact of Green Transformational Leadership on Green Performance and Mediating Role of Green Mindfulness: A Study on the Banking Sector in Sri Lanka
This study investigates the impact of green transformational leadership on green performance, with a focus on the mediating role of green mindfulness in the context of banking sector. Primary data from 224 employees across eight commercial banks in Sri Lanka were collected and analyzed using bivariate and multistep mediation analyses. Results indicate a positive influence of green transformational leadership on both green mindfulness and green performance. The study highlights that the relationship between green transformational leadership and performance is partially mediated by green mindfulness. Practically, organizations are encouraged to prioritize development of green transformational leadership and mindfulness to enhance overall green performance. The study contributes by emphasizing the need for aligning employees with pro-environmental values, fostering positive responses to green transformational leadership, and providing insights into the relationship between green transformational leadership and green performance.
Role of Capital Structure in the Profitability of Private Banks in Ethiopia
The selection of a company's capital structure is one of its most important strategic financial decisions. This paper seeks to determine the factors or components influencing the capital structure (CpS) of private banks in Ethiopia. Audited panel data was collected for the period 2005 to 2016 from seven private banks and the National Bank of Ethiopia. The panel data fixed effects estimation model was employed for data analysis, using EViews 8. It was observed that debt made up 85% of the entire capital of Ethiopia's private banks during the study period. The results showed that deposit-to-asset ratio substantially boosted the profitability of banks' core business operations, but net interest margin had a negligible positive impact. There was a statistically significant and favorable relationship between asset size and profitability. Conversely, an increase in loan-to-deposit ratio had a positive correlation with profitability, but a statistically insignificant impact on it. Consequently, banks should consider how best to manage their commitments, adequately mobilize deposits, and improve spread, size, and loans while decisions are made. Finally, it is suggested that future researchers assess banks' and other sectors' overall performance in the study's field.
Impact of Fraud on the Financial Performance of Private Sector Banks in India
The financial sector is pivotal for any country's economic growth and stability. However, the detrimental effects of fraudulent activities pose a considerable obstacle to this progress. This study assesses the impact of fraudulent activities on the financial performance of private sector banks in India. The study employs an ex-post facto research design, and the data was collected from secondary sources, including annual reports of the banks in focus and reports from the Reserve Bank of India. The ordinary least squares regression technique ascertains the relationship between a bank's fraudulent activities and financial performance. The findings indicate that the monetary value associated with fraud has a significantly negative impact on the financial performance of the studied banks. Interestingly, the frequency of fraud, on the other hand, does not significantly impact the banks' financial performance. Banks and regulatory authorities must undertake initiatives to proactively detect and prevent fraud. Timely action is required to safeguard the financial system's integrity and protect stakeholders' interests.
