Summary:This study analyzes the relationship between ownership structure and bank performance in Malaysia. The empirical analysis of this study is restricted to Malaysian Commercial Banks during the period of 2001-2011. The main objective of this study is to examine the relationship between ownership structure and performance in commercial bank in Malaysia.

However, the results indicate that higher insider ownership and family ownership would increase agency problem in the banks. Government ownership is found to have no impact on the banks performance
