    Diversification and bank stability: Role of political instability and climate risk
    (Elsevier, 2024) Shabir, Mohsin; Jiang, Ping; Shahab, Yasir; Wang, Wenhao; Isik, Ozcan; Mehroush, Iqra
    Amid the changing regulatory environment, economic volatility, and environmental complexities, the banking industry has experienced significant transformation. In this scenario, diversification has arisen as a critical risk management approach. This research investigates the intricate dynamics between bank diversification strategy and stability, particularly concentrating on the influences exerted by political uncertainty and climate-related risks. Our study examines the effect of bank diversification strategies on bank stability by using a sample of 271 banks operating in the MENA countries during the period 2009-2020. We also analyze how political instability and climate risk impact the nexus between diversification and bank stability. Our results show that the impact of enhancing banking diversification on stability is mixed. The bank's income and assets diversification improve the bank's stability. In contrast, diversification benefits appear to be deteriorating with the increase in non-interest activities-the so-called 'dark side of diversification.' While political instability and climate risk significantly affect the bank's stability and reduce the benefits of the bank's diversification strategy. Furthermore, the impact of diversification on bank stability varies across banks due to differing size and market power levels. Notably, the adverse impact of bank diversification on stability is more pronounced in conventional and GCC countries than in Islamic and non-GCC countries. The study offers significant policy implications for bank regulators to identify measures needed to address the risks of climate change in the banking sector and improve the stability of banks.

    The role of innovation in environmental-related technologies and institutional quality to drive environmental sustainability
    (Frontiers, 20/04/2023) Shabir, Mohsin; Hussain, Iftikhar; Işık, Özcan; Razzaq, Kamran; Mehroush, Iqra
    In this study, we examine the long-run effect of environmental-related technological innovation, institutional quality, trade openness, energy consumption, and economic growth on CO2 emissions in APEC countries from 2004 to 2018. Firstly, panel unit root tests were used to explore the stationarity of each data series. The panel unit root test findings showed that all data series are stationary at the first difference. Second, the Westerlund panel cointegration test was used to deal with heterogeneity and cross-sectional dependence. Thirdly, the empirical findings from the augmented mean group (AMG) and common correlated effects mean group (CCEMG) estimators indicate that environmental-related technological innovation and institutional quality destructively affect CO2 emissions. In contrast, trade openness, energy consumption, and economic growth positively impact CO2 emissions. While causality analysis refers to the unidirectional causality runs from trade openness, energy consumption to CO2 emission and bidirectional causality relationships are between technological innovation, institutional quality, GDP, CO2 emission. Based on the findings, we proposed that APEC countries should raise investment in environmental-related technological innovation and improve the quality of the institutional environment to achieve sustainable development targets.
