摘要: The objective of this paper is to investigate the relationship between non-performing loans and bank efficiency in Malaysia Singapore. To achieve objective, cost was estimated using stochastic frontier approach assuming normal-gamma distribution model proposed by Greene (1990). scores were then used second stage Tobit simultaneous equation regression determine effect on efficiency. results indicate that there no significant difference banks Singapore although exhibit a higher average score. clearly loan reduces Likewise, lower increases loans. result also support hypothesis bad management Berger DeYoung (1992) poor banking institutions quality loans, therefore, escalates level
