Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue, ‘Economics of Financial Markets’, broadly addresses the topic of how a financial market can be designed/operated to optimally allocate wealth to its participants. It is open for the submission of any novel theoretical or empirical research connected to applied and practical applications in the field; papers exploring the emerging issues of financial markets (and their impacts) that demand immediate attention from both practitioners and regulators are particularly welcome.

Examples include (but are not limited to):

  • The increasingly influential role of Stakeholder Theory (e.g., ESG investing, CSR, and others).
  • The shift towards non-fundamentalism among younger participants in the financial markets (e.g., the popularity of cryptocurrency and technical analysis).
  • The efficiency and issues of important financial markets in emerging economies that warrant research but are relatively less studied in the mainstream literature, such as India and others.
  • The more active role of individual investors in the digital age.

This paper aims to examine the determinants of financial stability in Jordanian commercial banks based on annual data for the period from 2011 to 2018. Based on the pooled effect model, this study shows that SME loans and capital adequacy positively and statistically affect the stability of Jordanian commercial banks, while financial inclusion, liquidity risk and credit risk negatively and statistically affect the stability of Jordanian commercial banks. The study recommends increasing the directing of bank loans towards small and medium enterprises, and the necessity for bank managers to commit to capital adequacy requirements because of their positive impact on banks’ stability. This study recommends that banks experiencing financial stability accelerate the increase in the rate of financial inclusion because financial inclusion ratios are very low in most of these stable banks. On the other hand, Jordanian commercial banks that have relatively high rates of financial inclusion should reduce the operating expenses resulting from financial inclusion. Bank managers also have to maintain sufficient liquidity in their banks and enhance credit standards by increasing collateral requirement from customers. Full article
