The most important tool for promoting the bank’s stability and health is the establishment of a standard corporate governance structure for managing the bank's business. Redesigning the relationships between bank management, shareholders and the rest of the bank’s stockholder, including the objectives, the risk and audit indices, and internal control of the bank, is recognized as the foundation of corporate governance. Good corporate governance in a bank increases productivity reduces financial risk and enhances systemic sustainability. Bad corporate governance increases the likelihood of a bank's bankruptcy and creates risks that are likely to contagion the entire banking network. In this paper, considering the importance of the corporate governance in the banking network, and issuing Central Bank circular in 2016, we will review corporate governance requirements, as well as quantify its effective indicators. To determine the corporate governance structure, we have introduced and quantified several important indicators about the board structure, internal control, and auditing of the banks. The period for the analysis of corporate governance in the banking network by indicators is 2011 to 2017. This information is extracted from financial statements or through the official website of the bank network. The results confirm that good corporate governance affects financial statement and precautionary ratios in banks.

This study aims at investigating the factors effective on poverty as one of the notable socioeconomic problems in Iran. To overcome the limitations of the prior research, the present study makes use of a multilevel model so as to simultaneously analyze the individual-level (personal characteristics) and macro-level (economic and institutional characteristics) factors. The provincial household budget data are obtained from Statistical Center of Iran and regional-national accounts of 2014 are used to explore the individual and institutional factors that might influence the poverty status of a family. Comparing the individual and institutional effects within the analytical process revealed that the model can empirically make it clear which of the two levels has the highest effects on poverty likelihoods in poor families. The study results indicate that none of the institutional and macro-level variables affects the poverty occurrence or eradication likelihoods and, in the meantime, the majority of the individual level variables, including the number of family members, employment status, age and education level of the family head are found strongly and significantly associated with poverty occurrence likelihood in a household.

The sample of the study comprises of banking experts working in six state banks and the Central Bank of Iran. The initial model was derived, based on an analysis of the aspects of variables as well as the indices obtained from the theoretical principles and previous studies.

The criteria were weighted, and the relationship between the criteria was examined, using F-DEMATEL method and ANP. The results of the study indicate that the following are the most significant criteria driving the decisions made by state banks on activities outsourcing: reliance on service providers, cost, the rapid delivery of services by the contractors, gaining competitive advantage, the existence of multiple contractors, improved control and overseeing.
