Impact of the Basel IV framework on securitization and performance of commercial banks in South Africa

World experience shows that improving the equipment and machinery supply efficiency in all economic sectors and, thus, contributing to the country’s economic growth can be achieved through the effective functioning of the financial and credit mechanism for performing leasing operations. Given that Ukrainian leasing market is at the formation stage and the economy is in the crisis, the issues of improving the leasing industry activity are extremely important for Ukraine.
Thus, the purpose of the article is to study the worldwide experience of the functioning of the financial and credit mechanism for performing leasing operations and to substantiate the need to implement new leasing tools and forms in Ukraine and the use of new financing sources for leasing operations.
It is determined that in order to improve functioning of the financial and credit mechanism for performing leasing operations in Ukraine, it is necessary to diversify financing sources of leasing operations by using institutional investors’ or venture capital investors’ funds and certificates, pools of securities provided with assets, which is a lease agreement. At the same time, as experience of the developed countries shows, new instruments and forms of leasing operations should be applied in Ukraine, in particular securitization, venture leasing, complex and operational leasing, which should improve the leasing industry activity. It was revealed that the secondary leasing market development in Ukraine should help to reduce the leasing companies’ vulnerability to the risk of equipment price change.
During scientific research, the methods of logical generalization and scientific abstraction, the statistical method (to analyze the leasing market development in the world and in Ukraine), the graphical method (for the changing dynamics of the main indicators of Ukrainian leasing market development), the comparative analysis method (while comparing the features of the functioning of the financial and credit mechanism for performing leasing operations in developed countries and in Ukraine) have been used.
Research results provide grounds for arguing that in order to improve the leasing industry activity in Ukraine, it is necessary to improve the financial and credit mechanism for performing leasing operations directly through the tools, forms and leasing operations financing sources diversification

This paper analyzes the importance of size and capital for risk-taking incentives of Jordanian banks using panel data of 13 commercial banks for the period 2007–2017. The results reveal that size and capital add to stability, consistent with the economies of scale and scope hypothesis. In developing countries, banks are more conservative and less involved in market-based activities; however, they are interconnected just as in developed countries. The results of the first model and second model reveal that as size increases by 1 percent, risk decreases by 0.11 percent and 0.03 percent, respectively, implying that too-big-to-fail is not present and that moral hazard is not a serious issue. In both models, large size is driven by diversification not by risk-taking incentives. In terms of capital, the results of the first model and second model reveal that as capital increases by 1 percent, risk decreases by 0.48 and 0.12 percent, respectively. The fact that Jordanian banks are overcapitalized indicates that the central bank regulation is not binding. Banks increase their capital adequacy ratios to reduce risk. It is clear that there is economic benefit from increased size. However, the failures of large banks are systemic due to their interconnectedness. Therefore, regulators need to pay special attention to them in accordance with Basel III Accord.

The decline in bank liquidity due to slowing economic growth in Indonesia has decreased bank profitability. COVID-19 and the increase in the number of non-performing loans increased the level of bank liquidity risk and decreased capital. Hence, the purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of banking liquidity risk on profitability in the Indonesian banking sector and to examine the role of capital adequacy ratio as a moderating variable. The method section explains panel data analysis using the random-effect model in analyzing the influence of liquidity risk on profitability and the role of capital adequacy ratio as a moderating variable. The results of the analysis show that liquidity risk has a significant positive influence on profitability at the 1% significance level. Moreover, the t-statistic value for capital adequacy ratio as a moderating variable is 2.59 at a 1% significance level. This result shows that the capital adequacy ratio can moderate the relationship between liquidity risk and profitability. Furthermore, the robustness test results show that the deposit risk ratio is a good indicator for estimating liquidity risk. In addition, this study is useful for the banking sector in managing its capital adequacy ratio and as a reference for the government in setting policies related to banking capital.
