| Summary: | This study examines the performance efficiencies of full-fledged Islamic banks in Malaysia for the
period from 2006 to 2011. The Malaysian Islamic banking industry has grown tremendously in terms
of assets, deposits and total financing over the study period. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is
employed in this study to measure the cost efficiency as well as the technical efficiency and its
decompositions. The results show that, on average the main contributor of cost efficiency for Islamic
domestic and foreign banks in Malaysia is allocative efficiency. In addition, the results find that
foreign Islamic banks are more efficient than domestic banks with respect to pure technical efficiency
and allocative efficiency. |
