Sažetak
The novel COVID-19 virus, and the pandemic that has followed its
spread, has had a massive impact on the banking industry on a
global level. Therefore, considering this context, this study examines the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the banking sector’s
performance in the Asian emerging economics, over a time span
ranging from 2016Q1–2021Q2. For this purpose, this study makes
use of the FE, RE, 2SLS, and PPML regression models. The empirical findings show that the GDP and banking size are positively
related to bank performance in the pre-COVID era, and the COVID
pandemics era thus far in the Asian emerging economies. In addition to this, the findings also reveal that the impact of GDP and
bank size on banking performance is lower in the pandemic
period, as compared to the pre-COVID period. Furthermore, the
results show that the COVID pandemic has significantly affected
the banking sector performance in the Asian emerging economies. Findings have also suggested that the central bank should
shift their focus on the banking industry in the Asian emerging
economies. Various other policy implications have also been suggested under the present study.
