Non-normality, lack of autocorrelation in the returns at first lag and significant positive autocorrelation in higher magnitude returns, widely studied in other markets, are investigated using daily closing stock prices of the four major Nigerian banks (Access, First, Guaranty Trust and United Bank for Africa (UBA)), from 2001 to 2013;encompassing periods of different financial scenarios. Jarque-Bera (JB), Doonik-Hansen, Kolmogrov-Smirnov and Ljung-Box (Q) test statistics are applied. Our findings reveal that the four banks stocks behave slightly different, but generally possess the stylized facts found in other markets. Observed is that, while the distributions of the returns for two of these banks (First and UBA) are approximately symmetric and leptokurtic;those of Access and Guaranty Trust banks are significantly non-symmetric and leptokurtic, thus non-normally distributed. Also established is that, while autocorrelation functions of daily returns are either negative or zero, those of both absolute returns and the squared returns are mostly positive. The autocorrelations of absolute returns are found to be predominantly positive and more persistent than those of the squared returns;indicating volatility clustering. Consequently, we conclude that the short-term stock prices of these banks behave like those of other markets. Some implications of the results for financial investment and stock market behaviour in the banking sector of NSM are discussed.展开更多

Through the analysis, some problems of domestic banks may be found and pointed out that the commercial bank should stress on the target of profit maximum to avoid the financial risks. With enough earnings power, the domestic banks can take the challenge with those foreign banks entering domestic money market.展开更多

Within this context, the relative efficiency measurement and statistical （parametric） efficiency measurements that employ （non-parametric） mathematical programming based on Data Envelopment Analysis （DEA） method are such instruments and they are used to determine brand value and financial performance that are pivotal factors in company mergers, acquisitions, and joint venture activities. This study works with Turkish banks whose brand values have been calculated by Brand Finance and whose brand values have been listed in Global Banking 500 for the years between 2010 and 2012. Firstly, using the banks＇ data published by Public Disclosure Platform （PDP/KAP）, a non-parametric model with three inputs and four outputs has been developed. Relative and super efficiencies of the banks have been measured by mathematical programming based DEA and the efficiency scores that come out of this analysis have been ranked, resulting in an ＂efficiency ranking of the banks＂. Following this, the efficiency ranking of these banks has been compared with brand value ranking of Brand Finance and their similarity/correspondence has been assessed.展开更多

The incidence of the progressively-growing malignant tumor(MT) in positive-control nude mice inoculated subcutaneously with Hela cell cultures of KB, X, or NM20/X strain was 10/ 10, 25/25 and 5/51, respectively. The results showed that the incidence of tumor in nude mice with di-and hy-perploid YB strain of MDCK cell during 17 - 23 passages, with hyper- and hypoploid KA strain of MDCK cell during 6-8 passages, with hypoploid WB strain of MDCK cell on passage 6, with hyper-and hypoploid H strain of MDCK cell during 8-24 passages was 2/24, 6/10, 5/10 and 10/15, respectively. The chromosomal analysis results showed that the ratio of difference in the rate of modal chromosome number between high(mcs + n) and lowest (mcs)passages was not more than 5 - 15% and the structure aberrations was generally 0 -3 %. These results proved that the genetic characteristics of chromosomal number of cell lines determines their tumorigenicity, but it is species-specific. MDCK line has tumorigenicity no matter what its chromosome kary-otype is, at least it has very low tumorigenicity even when its modal chromosome number is hypoploid. It is thus evident that MDCK cell of WB or H strain can be approved as substrate for the preparation of attenuated viral vaccines, but MDCK cell of YB or KA strain can not be approved as substrate for the preparation of attenuated viral vaccines.展开更多

The value creation is the aim of economic initiatives, strategies, corporate policies, and all business activities, including banking. It depends, among other things, on size, legal form, and business model. Therefore, this paper wants to demonstrate and explain the differences about the value created in the Italian banking sector, where there is much diversity regarding size, legal form, and business model. This paper estimated and compared the value of Italian listed companies from 2010 to 2012 and found the result： Banks create more value if they are big and operate in investment banking. Furthermore, it proved that legal form hasn＇t influenced performance and value of banks.展开更多
