Performance of Banks and Their Principal
Competitors Part (1)
1- Introduction
2- Evaluating Performance
The value of the financial firm's stock will tend to rise in any of
the following situations:
PO = D1/(r g) (6-2)
Where:
(D1) is the expected dividend on stock in period 1,
(r) is the rate of discount reflecting the perceived level of
risk attached to investing in the stock,
g is the expected constant growth rate at which all future
stock dividends will grow each year, and
(r must be greater than g).
D1 D2 Dn Pn
PO = + ++ + (6-3)
(1+r) 1 (1 + r) 2 (1 + r) n (1 + r) n
Where we assume an investor will hold the stock for (n) periods,
receiving the stream of dividends D1, D2, , Dn, and sell the
stock for price Pn at the end of the planned investment horizon.
