Capital adequacy negatively impacts bank performance in Bangladesh, study finds.
The article explores how the amount of money banks have affects their performance in Bangladesh. They looked at data from 20 banks over 11 years and found that having more money in reserve (capital adequacy) is linked to lower profits. Also, having lower costs compared to income is linked to higher profits. However, the amount of loans compared to deposits doesn't affect profits. In simple terms, having more money saved up can hurt a bank's profits, while keeping costs low can help.
