Description
Summary:Due to the diverse nature of results found in previous studies, the economic value of human capital still remains a hypothesis that must be subjected to additional investigation and tests using variety of data from a variety of sources. To this end, the current investigation builds on the theoretical argument that a firm's ability to profit from its human capital depends upon its aptitude for Human Resource Development (HRD), Further, divergent literatures on the relationship between bank performance (BP) and human resource development (HRD) are organized to hypothesize that the BP-HRD relationship is positive with a view to alleviate shortages in literature advocating HRD as a determinant of performance among Malaysian banks. This investigation is premised on the belief that the magnitude, value, and relevance of human capabilities become fruitful by the investment channeled to achieve it.
