dc.description.abstractThis thesis looks at the efficiency of thirteen State Islamic Religious Councils (SIRCs) in managing waqf in Malaysia for the period 2007 to 2013. Two stages of analysis are pertinent to the efficiency study of the SIRCs. In the first stage, the measurement of the technical efficiency of the SIRCs uses two basic models of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA); the Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes (CCR) model and Banker, Charnes and Cooper (BCC) model. For the purpose of measuring the efficiency, this study uses three inputs and two outputs selected based on the intermediation approach. Having obtained the efficiency scores, further investigation is made into the factors that are influential to the efficiency level of the SIRCs. Thus, the second stage looks into the relationship between the efficiency of the SIRCs and location, size of organization, board size, board independence and board meeting using the panel data analysis. This study finds that only one SIRC is fully efficient and the other twelve SIRCs are inefficient when analysis is done on a full sample of the thirteen SIRCs. Further analysis on the technical efficiency components also reveals that the SIRCs inefficiency mostly caused by managerial inefficiency, not scale inefficiency. Finally, the findings of the second stage analysis uncover that there is a relationship between the efficiency of the SIRCs to location, size of organization, board size, board independence and board meeting.en_US
