The dataset includes seven national stock markets for the period spanning from 1 July 2004 to 3 September 2008. Granger causality test was used to explore whether return causes volume or volume causes return. The empirical results of Granger causality tests reveal that returns lead volume in five markets out of the seven markets. The results of the exponential generalised autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity model provide evidence that shocks persist in the conditional variance, good news have different impact on market volatility than bad news and that the large shocks have large impact on the market volatility for all markets. In addition, the lag volume shows a significant and positive impact on volatility in four markets and no impact in three markets, namely Abu Dhabi, Bahrain and Doha.<\/p>\n Keywords<\/strong>: GARCH; generalised autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity; GCC; Gulf Cooperation Council stock markets; Granger causality; price\u2013volume relation; VAR; vector autoregression<\/p>\n 10.

This issue is related to the market liberalization reforms permitting foreign investors to enter the equity market in 2005. The analysis reveals a high risk in return equation. The GARCH-Mean model shows that the information flow provided to the market comes from the risk and return variables. There is a high persistence of the shocks in the volatility, but it was less in the first sub-period compared with its persistence after the entry of foreign investors.<\/p>\n Keywords:<\/strong> DSM; Doha securities market; EGARCH; Qatar; return; volatility.<\/p>\n Reference<\/strong>: to this paper should be made as follows: Abdullah, A.M.A. and Ghassan, H.B.A. (2010)<\/p>\n 12.

It is of paramount importance for banks to develop secured and private internet banking systems that are trustworthy, for their users. Thus, management attention might be fruitfully focused on the development of such beliefs on the part of the users. Thus, the internet banking authorities should employ training and promotion approaches to develop customers\u2019 beliefs of shared value, communication, and opportunistic behavior, which in turn will influence or attract the customers\u2019 behavioural intention to utilize internet banking services. Similarly, banks may consider offering a low-cost service by passing on some of their gains from reduced operating cost to customers. This may lead to better customer loyalty towards the service.<\/p>\n Originality\/value<\/strong>: The paper finds that attraction as an additional factor in a trust-relationship<\/p>\n Commitment model has not been examined before. Thus, researchers should include attraction in online relationship banking models along with other relationship effects. Also, bankers and policy makers need to develop trust among the customers and to realize that more favorable communication environments must be created to attract customers and to make them more committed to using online banking transactions over the internet.<\/p>\n Keywords<\/strong>: Banking, Internet, Middle East<\/p>\n Paper type<\/strong>: Research paper<\/p>\n 13.

Results suggest, however, that the degree of persistence in volatility is high, which implies that once volatility increases it remains high over a long run. In addition, conditional volatility tends to rise when the absolute value of the standardized residuals was large. While, contrary to what has been found in the literature, the return volatility seems to be symmetric.<\/p>\n Research limitations\/implications: <\/strong> The finding of volatility persistence and clustering might imply an inefficient stock market. Therefore, policy makers should emphasize and direct their attention toward increasing the efficiency of the stock market.<\/p>\n Practical implications: <\/strong>Being able to make predictions about financial market volatility is of special importance to investors and policy makers since it makes available to them a measure of risk exposure in their investments and decisions.<\/p>\n Originality\/value: <\/strong>This paper provides a contribution to the empirical literature on stock market volatility. It is the only study, to the authors\u2019 knowledge, that investigates the issue of QSC liberalization and volatility. The authors believe that QSC has its own unique characteristics, and the results of the study depend mainly on the market\u2019s specific conditions, the quality of its financial institutions and the extent of financial liberalization obtained.<\/p>\n Keywords: <\/strong>Liberalization, Volatility, Foreign participation, EGARCH, Qatar Exchange, Qatar, Emerging markets.<\/p>\n Paper type<\/strong>: Research paper<\/p>\n 14.

The study results indicate, only two banks (the largest bank in the group, government owned and middle sized, private bank), scored technical efficiency level (i.e. scale and pure technical efficiency). While the smallest bank in the group (private owned), scored pure technical efficiency (i.e., managerial efficiency), but scale inefficient. These results add to the existing literature findings, hat ownership is not a constraint of managerial and scale efficiency but bank\u2019s size is important factor for scale efficiency in Islamic banks.<\/p>\n JEL classification<\/strong>: G21<\/p>\n Keywords<\/strong>: DEA, Efficiency, Banks .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 1. \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0644\u0627\u0642\u0629 \u0628\u064a\u0646 \u0646\u0635\u064a\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0647\u0645 \u0645\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0627\u0631\u0628\u0627\u062d \u0648\u0627\u0633\u0639\u0627\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0627\u0633\u0647\u0645 \u0641\u064a \u0633\u0648\u0642 \u0627\u0644\u0627\u0633\u0647\u0645 \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0639\u0648\u062f\u064a\u0629 2.
