Abstract
The current study aims to assess the impact of ownership and board structures on the corporate risk-taking behaviours of Saudi Arabian banks listed. The information was taken from the Mubasher database, Board, ownership structure, risk-taking behaviour, and other financial data were all covered in the eight-year data set, which ran from 2017 to 2024. There were 104 observations for 13 banks in the sample. The results show a moderately strong relationship between ownership structure (managerial, institutional, and family) and risk behaviour (RT), with R values of 0.551, 0.553, and 0.584, respectively. The variation in RT explained by these ownership types and control variables ranged from 30.4% to 34%, all statistically significant (Sig. = 0.000). Furthermore, there is a statistically significant relationship between board structure and risk-taking (RT), with R = 0.55 and R2 = 30%, indicating moderate explanatory power. Certain board characteristics (BSIZE, BIND, BMeeting, and Dual) showed an inverse relationship with RT, while BGD showed a positive relation.
