The overall results appears to indicate that external forces& have higher impact on Indonesia banks compared to Thailand and Malaysian banks over the study period.Implications: This study recommend recapitalize banks to efficiently utilize their enlarged capital base to expand their lending activities and investment to real sectors in order to generate higher economic growth for the IMT-GT region.
