Abstract

This study is carried out to compare the relative efficiency, technical efficiency change, technical change, technical progress as well as productivity of individual finance companies in Malaysia. With 32 finance companies and using a sample over the period of 1988 to 1996, the authors examine the patterns of productivity and efficiency changes of the second largest financial institution in Malaysia. Specifically, we estimate total factor productivity and isolate technological advances and technical efficiency changes for each of these 32 finance companies using non-parametric Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA).
