Abstract:
This article aims to study the impact of banking governance on the competitiveness of Tunisian commercial banks evaluated in terms of economic profitability (ROA), financial profitability (ROE) and net interest margin (MNI). An empirical analysis carried out, using the ordinary least squares method on panel data, for a sample made up of 10 Tunisian commercial banks and over a period between 1980 and 2014. This study uses a set of variables: the size of the board of directors, ownership (public / private), share of investors (institutional / foreign) and duality in order to verify their interactions and estimate a random effect. Empirical results show that the establishment of a bank-specific governance system reinforced by good practices and mechanisms improves banking competitiveness.
