Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣科技大學 === 企業管理系 === 104 === This study investigates the performance differences among Banks in Taiwan. We use Resource-based View of the Firm and Strategic Group Theory as our theoretical background. For the statistical model, a hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) analysis was applied. Under all performance variables (including “ROE”, “ROA”, “Total earnings per bank staff” and EPS), Firm Effects were found to explain 11 to 21 percent of variance among bank performance in Taiwan. Strategic Group Effects accounted for 4 to 11 percent of performance differences. Year Effects were found to range from 14 to 22 percent influence. Our study testify that business performance outcomes of banks in Taiwan is by each of their strategies implemented and the effect of economic environment; therefore, we suggest when formulating managerial decisions, each bank should not only evaluate the resources and criteria they own but also consider the external environment such as macroeconomic oscillation, economic development policy and financial supervisory rules, and then build its competitive advantages in this industry, so that each can remain the competitiveness to survive.
