Abstract

The paper examined the effect of financial institutions’ regulation, banking sector competitiveness and stability of the banking sector in Nigeria from 1996 to 2021. The study disaggregated financial institution’s regulation into capital adequacy ratio, liquidity, and private sector credits, while the banking sector competitiveness was measured by Lerner Index. More so, stability of the banking sector was measured by Z-Score. The study embraced the Ex post facto research design. Data were collected for the twenty-one (21) DMBs from 1996 to 2021. Data were sourced from CBN statistical bulletin, CBN financial stability report and World Bank database, 2021. The Robust Least Square Estimation Technique was adopted. The regression estimate clearly revealed that, liquidity ratio, Capital Adequacy Ratio, and banking sector competitiveness have high contributive effect on the stability of Nigerian banks but private sector credits exposed banks to high incidence of bank instability. Hence, the paper concludes that, financial institution’s regulations, banking sector’s competitiveness are perquisite for the financial stability of banks in Nigeria within the reviewed periods. As such, the Apex bank should ensure that all the Nigerian banks should sustain the current minimum CAR of 15%. Lastly, Nigerian banks are encouraged to invest in income remunerative ventures as this have a high contributive effect on their financial stability.

Abstract

CSR and accounting conservatism represent two significant pillars of modern corporate governance, yet reconciling these concepts often presents challenges for firms. Thus, CSR emphasizes ethical behavior, social equity, and environmental sustainability, ensuring that businesses contribute meaningfully to society while accounting conservatism encourages cautious financial reporting by recognizing potential losses earlier than gains, ultimately protecting stakeholders from overstatements. This study was initially based on non-financial firms listed in the Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX). The CSR data were collected from the from the annual financial statement of selected firms of non-financial firm with available financial report over the period 2014-2024. The non-financial firms sampled in the study were 75 firms listed in the NGX, 1164 firm-year observations between 2014 and 2024. The finding of the study revealed that higher CSR scores are associated with increased accounting conservatism while ROA, CSR exhibits a positive impact on firm performance. The study concluded that CSR is significantly and positively associated with accounting conservatism. The study results suggest that firms with higher CSR performance adopt more cautious financial reporting practices, showcasing a clear alignment between social responsibility and conservative accounting.

Abstract

Income Tax Article 25 refers to the payment of income tax in installments, with the aim of easing the financial burden on taxpayers, considering that the tax payable must be settled within one fiscal year. This paper serves as a foundation for understanding tax regulations applicable to taxpayers, particularly in relation to compliance with Corporate Income Tax (PPh Article 25). The research was conducted at the Ternate KPP Pratama. This study uses primary data obtained from individual or corporate taxpayers engaged in business activities subject to PPh Article 25, which requires monthly installment payments of income tax during the current tax year. The test results show that understanding of tax regulations has a positive and significant effect on taxpayer compliance. The greater the taxpayer’s understanding of applicable tax regulations, the higher their level of compliance in fulfilling tax obligations. The research findings indicate that a strong grasp of tax regulations can significantly enhance taxpayer compliance. Conversely, limited understanding may hinder the effective enforcement of compliance. Therefore, the higher the level of understanding taxpayers have of the applicable tax regulations, the less likely they are to violate them, thereby promoting greater compliance. Additionally, the quality of taxation services also has a positive and significant impact on taxpayer compliance. The better the quality of these services, the more likely taxpayers are to comply with their obligations. Improved tax service quality leads to increased trust and satisfaction among taxpayers, ultimately encouraging better compliance with tax regulations.

Abstract

This research delves into how the qualities of companies are connected to the accuracy of financial reporting in consumer goods companies in Nigeria that are publicly traded. By using data from financial documents from 12 consumer goods companies in Nigeria from years 2014 to 2023, the study looked at three different aspects of companies (firm size, board makeup, and profitability) to see how they relate to the quality of financial reporting. The accuracy of financial reporting was assessed in the research using the Modified Jones Model. The data was examined using a combination of basic statistics, tests for issues, and advanced statistics. The research established a straight line pattern which was evaluated using a basic analysis of regression. It was discovered that the makeup of a board greatly affects how well consumer goods companies report their finances in Nigeria. Conversely, the size and profitability of a company do not have much impact on the quality of financial reporting for consumer goods companies in Nigeria. The results showed that when taken together, the various characteristics of companies studied in this research are significantly linked to the quality of financial reporting for public consumer goods companies in Nigeria. Based on these findings, the research recommended that businesses should work on setting up strong internal controls, reliable reporting channels, and appropriate structures for governance to deal with the negative consequences of these factors.

Abstract

This study looked at how managing intellectual capital affects the cost of equity capital in conglomerate firms in Nigeria that are listed on the stock exchange. It used a detailed dataset from 2013 to 2022. Following the Modigliani and Miller theoretical framework, the research explored how human capital efficiency and capital employed efficiency influence the cost of equity capital. To meet the goals of the study, an ex-post facto research design was chosen for its cost-effectiveness and the reliability of historical data in evaluating past events. The developed hypotheses were tested using a random effect regression analysis method, which helps reduce biases and improve the strength and trustworthiness of the findings. The results suggest that the efficiency of human capital does not have a notable impact on the cost of equity capital, whereas the efficiency of capital employed shows a significant negative effect on equity costs. The result underscores the importance of optimizing capital utilization within Nigeria's conglomerate sector. In line with these findings, the study suggests strategic measures to improve capital efficiency, including policies to promote effective capital management and incentives to support resource optimization practices. Additionally, based on the limited impact of human capital investments on reducing equity costs, this study recommends that managers of listed conglomerate firms in Nigeria should not prioritize such investments solely to fix equity costs.

Abstract

The increase in financial inclusion in a country can affect the stability of financial system because it can maintain the stability of banking operations and reduce inequality in financial access in society. The increase in financial access caused by the emergence of digital financial products, such as transaction systems using e-money and QRIS financial transactions, has succeeded in reducing inequality in access to financial services in society. The advantages provided by digital transactions have disadvantages, namely regarding the guarantee and security of digital financial transactions which do not yet have regulations from the government. Hence, it is imperative to conduct a more thorough examination of how the expansion of financial products via digital transactions impacts the stability of Indonesia's financial system. The approach utilised in this research is the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) methodology utilising data from the years 2021 to 2023. The factors assessed in this study encompass e-money and QRIS, alongside supplementary variables such as online loans, credit cards, and debit cards.  Furthermore, a key variable under consideration is the Non Performing Loan (NPL) which serves as a gauge for financial system stability. The study results revealed that debit cards do not greatly impact the stability of the financial system, whether in the short or long run.  Conversely, credit cards have a notable positive influence on financial system stability in the short term but do not have a lasting impact. On the contrary, e-money is found to have a considerable detrimental impact on financial system stability, both in the short term and long term.  Similarly, QRIS is shown to have a significant positive effect on financial system stability in the short term but lacks significance in the long run.  Online loans, on the other hand, have a substantial negative impact on financial system stability in the short term but are not significant in the long run.

Abstract

This research investigates how both internal and external elements impact the financial success of private banks that are publicly traded on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2019 to 2023. Factors within the banks such as Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) and Non-Performing Loans (NPL) will be analysed, along with external factors like inflation and the benchmark interest rate (BI Rate). Return on Assets (ROA) is a key indicator of banks' efficiency in terms of using their assets to make a profit. In this study, panel data regression analysis was used to analyse data from official financial reports. The results show that Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) has a positive impact on ROA, while Non-Performing Loans (NPL) have a negative impact. Interestingly, factors like inflation and the Bank Indonesia (BI) Rate do not seem to have a significant effect on ROA. This research distinguishes itself by focusing on how these variables interact within the unique environment of private banking in Indonesia. The study proposes various strategies to improve profitability, including better management of credit risks and capital adequacy.

Abstract

This study examined the effect of financing mix decision on firm performance optimality with evidence from the Nigerian oil and gas industry from 2014 to 2023. The study decomposed financing mix decisions into Debt-to-equity Ratio (DER), Debt Ratio (DTR), Capitalization Ratio (CAR), and Interest Coverage Ratio (ICR). These formed the independent variables. The dependent variable is financial performance operationalized as return on equity (ROE). The study adopted the ex-post facto design because it facilitates the investigation of how regressors, prior to the study, affect regressed. The study population is confined to the 9 listed sampled firms in the Nigerian exchange group as at 31st December, 2024. The Robust Least Square estimation technique was used to test the research hypothesis. The study confirmed that Debt-to-equity Ratio (DER), Debt Ratio (DTR), and Interest Coverage Ratio (ICR) have positive significant effect on firm performance optimality while Capitalization Ratio (CAR) has a negative significant effect on firm performance optimality. The study concludes that equity and debt optimality enhances profitability.  Overall, the study emphasized the need for an optimal financial structure in enhancing firm profitability. Hence, the paper submits that the sampled firms need to balance debt financing to tax benefits while minimizing financial distress risks. This study provides empirical evidence on the optimal mix of equity and debt financing for enhanced firm profitability.

Abstract

The research investigated the factors influencing financial trouble in Nigeria before the outbreak of COVID-19. The main focus of the study was on financial instability, which was measured using the Altman Z-score. Various factors contributing to financial distress, such as profitability, loan loss provision, liquidity ratio, asset quality, and capital adequacy ratio, were taken into consideration as explanatory variables. Data from the Central Bank of Nigeria's statistical bulletin and the Nigerian Deposit Insurance Corporation's annual report from the years 1992 to 2022 were collected for analysis. The data was then examined using various techniques such as descriptive analysis, correlation analysis, and granger causality test. The E-view software package was utilized to assess the relationship between the explanatory and explained variables in the study. The result shows that profitability (ROCE), loan loss provision (LLP) and liquidity ratio (LIR) are negatively correlated with Altman Z-score and that such relationship is moderate and Asset quality ratio (ASQ) and Capital adequacy (CAR) are positively correlated with Altman Z-score. The study recommended that beyond thinking of profitability, the bank should imbibe efficient and effective management team that will reduce the environmental shocks that affects performance of the Nigerian banking industry. Furthermore, there is need for regulators of the Nigerian banking industry to reexamine the rising of non-performing loans (NPL) occasioned by inability of the deficit economic unit to service their loans.
