Özet
Relying on the resource dependence theory, this study investigates the effect on intellectual capital efficiency and its components of having board members who are former bureaucrats, using a sample of banks in Turkiye. The study uses a sample of 344 fırm-year observations of banks in Turkiye between 2005 and 2018 to investigate the relationship between ex-bureaucrat board members and intellectual capital efficiency. In addition to ordinary least squares (OLS), the curret study employs instrumental variables with a two-stage least squares model to mitigate potential endogeneity concerns. Our findings show that ex-bureaucrat board members have a significantly positive association with intellectual capital efficiency at banks in Turkiye.
