Abstract

The objective of this study is to examine whether the current global financial crisis has impacted the Malaysian banking stocks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) was used as a proxy for the crisis and it was ascertained that there was a strong relationship between the DJIA and the Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (KLCI).Statistical analysis was then performed on the KLCI and selected banking stocks which indicated that there was a strong and positive correlation between the two variables. The findings support the aim of this study - that the 2007-2008 financial crisis has indeed impacted the Malaysian banking stocks.
