1 F8 A Intellectual Capital and the Business Model Transformation of Regional Banks CHEN Xi Abstract Based on the calculation of the intellectual capitals of major domestic regional banks, this paper analyses the impacts of intellectual capitals on the performance of banks. The results show that the VAIC of the intellectual capital plays a main role in the improvement of the performance of banks, but the HCE has no effect on the improvement and the negatively relates to the performance. The above results show that physical capitals are still the most important resources of regional banks and make the largest contribution to the performance of banks; the profit mode of regional banks is still the traditional one that relies on high capital consumption. This paper argues that, different from the traditional mode, the development mode of regional banks should be shifted to rely on the intellectual capital, the operation and management of intellectual capital, rather than the traditional scale expansion of credits and the single investment of physical capitals. Key words regional bank; intellectual capital; human capital; bank performance; profit mode 500 ~ arslin@sina.com
