Abstract: This paper focuses on understanding the effects of monitoring mechanism (i.e., board quality as well as ownership structure) on efficiency and productivity changes of private commercial banks in Bangladesh over the period from 2007 to 2016. Two non-parametric methods - data envelopment analysis and malmquist productivity index - were used to determine the efficiency and productivity of private commercial banks in Bangladesh. Based on constant returns to scale, five inputs and two outputs have been used to determine the efficiency scores and to identify any improvement in productivity over the period. It was found that private commercial banks of Bangladesh are at the efficiency level of 80.84%. The productivity of all private commercial banks does not follow any trend. Out of twenty two (22) PCBs, only nine (9) banks could manage to increase productivity. Hypothesis test (one s le t-test) are conducted to validate the results. The impact of stock market crisis period on the overall productivity and efficiency of the banks is also evident.

Abstract: Green concern is making a profound impact on building green competitive advantage (GCA) across the globe. Apparel sector of Bangladesh is at crossroads regarding sustainability of firms. Green initiatives are thus required for ensuring the survival of apparel sector. The current study attempts to examine the interplay among environmental corporate social responsibility (ECSR) dimensions, green corporate image (GCI), and green competitive advantage of firms. To address the research topic, structural equation modeling approach has been adopted. Based on prior research findings, five hypotheses have been devised and finally evaluated by collecting data from 53 apparel firms enlisted with Dhaka Stock Exchange, Bangladesh. The study findings reveal that the ECSR dimensions have critical role to play over building GCI and GCA at the firm level. The study attempted to integrate ECSR, GCI, and GCA and contributes to the holistic understanding of the green anxieties of the business world. Understanding the critical role of ECSR, this study calls for proactive managerial actions regarding organizational sustainability.
