BRANCH PERFORMANCE
Branch Types
• Rural Branches• Urban Branches• Large Branches• Medium Branches• Small Branches
Branch Banking
• Branch banking leads to more stable banking systems by enabling banks to better diversify their assets and widen their depositor base.
• Branch banking induces competition. – Competition forces marginally profitable banks to
change either through merger or voluntary liquidation. – When these weaker banks close, the overall stability
of banking system improves through consolidation.
• Branch banking stabilizes banking systems by reducing their vulnerability to local economic shocks
Economic Factors Affecting Banking Activity
• Average employment growth
• Average population growth
• Average per capita income
• Average number of branches
• Average population per branch
Benchmarking Efficiency of Bank Branches
• Operational efficiency model
• Quality efficiency model
• Profitability efficiency model
Operational Efficiency Model
• Operational efficiency model identifies branches that are group leaders and serve as yardsticks to guide the improvement of performance of inefficient branches
– Managerial performance– Clerical performance– Management of computer terminals– Working space effectiveness– Number of current personal accounts– Number of savings accounts– Number of foreign currency current accounts– Number of credit applications– Output time
Operational Efficiency of a Branch
Quality Efficiency Model
• Service quality as perceived by branch personnel
• Service quality as perceived by branch customers
Perceived Dimensions of Service Quality
• Reliability - Ability to perform the services accurately and
dependably.
• Responsiveness – Willingness to help customers and
provide prompt service
• Assurance – Knowledge and courtesy of employees and
their ability to convey trust and confidence
• Empathy – Caring, individualized attention provided to
customers
• Tangibles – Appearance of physical facilities, personnel and
communication.
Objective and Perceived Measures of Quality
Profitability Efficiency Model
• Consumable Resources– Clerical personnel– Supervisor personnel– Computer terminals– Working space
• Revenue Generating Resources– Advances– Deposits– Commissions– Number of credit application accounts– Number of current personal accounts– Number of savings accounts– Number of foreign currency accounts– Number of inter-branch transactions
Profitability Efficiency Model
Service Quality and Profit Performance
Drivers of Branch Performance
• Profit and growth are stimulated primarily by customer loyalty
• Loyalty is a direct result of customer satisfaction• Satisfaction is largely influenced by the value of services
provided to customers • Value is created by satisfied, loyal and productive
employees;• Employee satisfaction results primarily from high-quality
support services and policies that enable employees to deliver results to customers
Data Envelopment Analysis
• Data from a single bank in a small and tightly regulated economy
• Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) – Used for measuring efficiency– Several decision making units are mapped – Mapping of inputs with respect to outputs – Uses linear programming formulations to fit the model– Branch units on the data envelopment by the model
are efficient– Inefficient units can be projected onto the efficient
frontier either by reducing their inputs or increasing their outputs
– Virtual units that are close to the real ones but are on the efficient frontier (for the inefficient units)
DEA Example
