  • “Influence of independent directors on the market risks of Indian banks;The purpose of this paper is to empirically explore the influence of independent directors (non-executive directors) on the market risks of the Indian banks.

    This paper is based on the data collected over a period of seven years (2009-2016) for a set of 29 Indian banks that are the constituents of the National Stock Exchange 500 Index. The data for independent directors of the sample banks are extracted from the annual reports of the banks, whereas the data relating to the dependent and control variables are compiled from the Ace equity and the Reserve Bank of India databases. The study uses the panel data method for analysis of the collected data for the sample banks.
    Findings
    This study concludes that independent directors increase the market risks for Indian banks (measured through equity beta).”

  • Do Women Directors Impact the Risk and Return of Indian Banks;The purpose of the paper is to investigate whether women directors impact the risk and return of Indian banks. This study employs panel data models for a sample of 29 Indian banks that form part of the National Stock Exchange 500 index for the period 2009–2016. This paper concludes that women directors influence the accounting returns (measured through Return on Assets) of Indian banks. However, it was found that women directors did not affect the risks (measured through Equity Beta and gross NPA to Total Assets) of the sample banks. This paper contributes to the literature and practitioners in several ways. To the best of the knowledge of the authors, no study has examined the impact of women directors on the risk and return of banks operating in India. Hence, the findings of this article have substantial implications both to academia and practitioners.
