Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to explore a model to measure the money deposit bank financial sustainability based on ownership structure and to examine the moderating role of managerial intention on managerial ownership and foreign ownership.

Design/ Methodology/ Approach

An elaborate literature review was conducted to identify the variables and a proposed conceptual model was conceived.

Findings

A conceptual model was presented after the discussion of relationship and literature review that examined ownership structure, managerial intention and financial sustainability.

Originality/Value

Many scholars have investigated the different dimensions of ownership structure, managerial intention and performance, however little research has been done on the integration of ownership structure and financial sustainability. Furthermore, there is also a dearth in literature that examine the moderating role of managerial intention on the relationship between ownership structure and financial sustainability.
