Abstract:
This thesis investigates how board composition affects Bangladeshi banks' performance, concentrating on third-generation banks in particular. In order to assess how these financial institutions' boards' makeup, dynamics, and organizational structure affect important performance metrics, the study looks at these aspects. The research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how board characteristics shape the operational and financial outcomes of third generation banks in the context of Bangladesh's banking sector by using a mixed-methods approach that combines quantitative analysis and qualitative insights. Because of their distinct position at the vanguard of technical breakthroughs, third-generation banks' governance has gained attention. Navigating the possibilities and difficulties in the modern banking environment requires an understanding of how the independence, diversity, and makeup of their boards affect performance and decision-making processes. Results from this study should provide policymakers, regulators, and business experts with useful information. A thorough grasp of the complex linkages that exist between board composition and financial performance enables stakeholders in Bangladesh's banking sector to make well-informed decisions that are tailored to the unique requirements of third-generation institutions. The results are anticipated to support the resilience and sustainability of Bangladesh's financial industry by addressing both the theoretical and practical consequences of governance practices.
