Strategically Integrating Risk Management into Intellectual Capital Management

This study investigates the effects of intellectual capital and risk management on the efficiency performance of Malaysian general insurers. We employ data envelopment analysis (DEA) to estimate efficiency performance. We run truncated regression with a bootstrapping approach for 16 unique Malaysian...
