Abstract
This paper analyses the efficiency of Malaysian commercial banks during financial liberalisation using Stochastic Frontier Analysis. Focus of this paper is the efficiency of Islamic foreign banks and conventional banks with Islamic bank subsidiary. The results show that domestic conventional banks which operate Islamic banking have cost-saving technology compared to other banks. While, the relatively new foreign Islamic banks need more time to compete as they are found to be inefficient, conventional banks with Islamic bank subsidiary do not show any improvement in their efficiencies during the sample period. Therefore, by attracting foreign Islamic banks as well as converting Islamic banking windows into Islamic bank subsidiaries, government’s objective of improving Malaysian banks efficiency particularly domestic banks during the sample period is yet to be achieved
