The fundamental question addressed in this study is whether the attitude of the board of directors toward risk will affect the bank risk and performance. The population of our research is domestic commercial banks. The examination period is from 4th quarter 1999 to 4th quarter 2007. Since OLS estimators could be inconsistent and meaningless if there were heterogeneity across individuals. To control for individual heterogeneity, the quantitative analysis of the panel data regression model was conducted. The empirical results support the claim that the collateralized shares may have contributed to a lower return due to a higher risk. Those results are also in line with previous researches (Chiou et al., 2002; Kao and Chiou, 2002). Because we adopt quarterly data in our study, another important issue is that if performance on different month were anomaly. We examine performance measures and risk measures for the first quarter to forth quarter. This analysis indicates that performance and risk measures engaging in the seasonal effect results similar to the full samples, and suggests that our inference in not biased by the seasonal anomaly. Such findings underscore the importance of enforcing relatively regulations and may provide policy implication for the regulators in the later monitoring requirement.

Although our study has yielded findings that have empirical implications, there are limitations in this study. The first shortcoming in the current study is that we can only get listed bank information about the collateralized shares. The second limitation is insiders’ discretion to report the number. We can not ensure that the ratios we adopt are all proper numbers without manipulating by banks’ insider. Furthermore, we adopt the criteria when judging examination periods and samples, it is hard to prevent our empirical results from the nonselection bias.

Table 2 shows samples and observations in our study. The examination periods in our study are from 4th quarter 1999 to 4th quarter 2007. The criteria we adopt when judging examination periods are (a) whether equity is negative, (b) whether the bank be takeover by FSC. We got rid of the same year and the last year when banks emerge the situations we listed above. Finally, we got an unbalanced penal data in our study.

To contribute to our growing understanding of nature and influence of the collateralized shares, we redefined the variable CLR as a dummy variable Dit to observe the variation in the relationship between the collateralized shares, the proxy of return and risk.

Those results are also in line with previous researches (Chiou et al., 2002; Kao and Chiou, 2002) that the financial leverage approaches such as collateralized shares significant affect the attitude toward credit risk of the management and performance, more proportion of collateralized shares is observably not good to banks.

Table 10: Robustness of performance and risk results - seasonal effect (separate samples)

Because we adopt quarterly data in our study, another important issue is that if performance on different month were anomaly. We examine performance measures and risk measures for the first quarter to forth quarter. We then rerun the equation 11 and report empirical results in Table 10. This analysis indicates that performance and risk measures engaging in the seasonal effect results similar to the full samples, and suggests that our inference in not biased by the seasonal anomaly.
