As one of the key financial intermediaries, banks play a significant role as providers of credits and liquidity to the Asean economies. Banks are able to execute this economic
role efficiently provided they are profitable. The issue is: What affects banks' net interest margins in this region? This paper investigates six factors affecting net interest margin (NIM) of conimercial banlts in Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, Korea, Australia and New Zealand over 1998 to 2002. Although the banks are operating in different economies: the investigation reveals that loan to deposit ratio significantly affects the banks' NIM in all six Asean countries.
