Intellectual capital efficiency and its determinants

This study applies a two-stage approach to examine intellectual capital efficiency and its determinants. In the first stage, we evaluate the intellectual capital efficiency of 25 Malaysian software companies by using the data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach. Our findings show that the sample com...

In the first stage, we evaluate the intellectual capital efficiency of 25 Malaysian software companies by using the data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach. Our findings show that the sample companies have to first improve their technical efficiency, and subsequently scale efficiency.

In the second stage, we run ordinary least squares and Tobit regression analyses to examine determinants of intellectual capital efficiency.
