Abstract:
The primary research objective of this study is to identify
the connections between some supervisory boards’
characteristics from the Romanian banking system, on
the one hand (namely the size, the character of
independence and the gender diversity of their
members) and, on the other hand, the banking financial
performance, measured by the return on assets (ROA)
and return on equity (ROE).
Thus, through this research, the authors aim to provide
answers (justified by the results of an empirical
research) to the question “Can the structure of the
supervisory board affect the financial performance
recorded in the Romanian banking system?” The
research methodology used is mainly quantitative,
based on a statistical deductive analysis, testing and
identifying the type cause – effect connections, and in
the same time with the assessment of the degree of their
significance, representing the main objective of this
research.
