The researcher also analyzes the impact of corporate tax as a moderating variable on the performance of financial firms (Banks). The researcher used a fixed-effect model in the panel data set with a sample of 18 sets of banks from the period of 2000 to 2019 (20 years). ROA and ROE use as performance indicators with other explanatory variables i.e. ATD, CR, DR, and EPS. Use dummy variables (1 use for pre and 0 use for post) for the pre and post-analysis of corporate restructuring. The study analyzes the financial firm’s performance before and after corporate restructuring with and without moderating variable (CT).
