Contributory determinants influencing total assets of commercial banks in Malaysia (2008 - 2010) / Hasroleffendy Hassan, Maznah Wan Omar, Ahmad Yumni Abu Bakar

In tandem with the impending full liberalization of global economy and Basel III requirements in 2015, most commercial banks worldwide might encounter the risks of being taken over by larger bank given that the entry of larger foreign banks into local industries can no longer be restricted.
