If you have any other articles bout EAGLES, would you please send me?? it will be so helpful for my thesis. Well, to be true, i have difficulties in searching EAGLES topics on the net. bunches of thanks.

Why CAMEL failed to recognize the weakness of banks?

Many analysts or bank inspectors use the CAMEL for analyzing banks and not knowing the disadvantages of the model. Here is an expose of the potential loopholes and where the EAGLES benchmark may excel.

Demise of CAMEL?

In the CAMEL, analysts assess five key aspects of the operations of a financial institution – Capital, Assets, Management, Earnings and Liquidity – rating them on a scale of 1 to 5. An overall rating of 1 is best while a rating of 5 implies a bank being laden with existing or potential problems.

Activity Based Costing in Banks

Since activity based costing (ABC) was first propounded in 1987, many consulting firms have advertised their specialist services and experiences in the implementation of ABC in the banking sector.

But the dearth of available data, published or otherwise, suggests that ABC is not as widely understood and practiced in the financial services sector as one may be led to believe.
Two reasons account for this: firstly, banks find it difficult to define their products and secondly, the banks think that the dififculty may not warrant the cost.
