This study has chosen trend analysis, descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and regression analysis to identify the determinants of the competitive advantage of local banks in Malaysia. The dependant variable is competitive advantage (measure by profit before tax and zakat), where for independent variables are cost leadership ( measure by profit margin ratio and net income to total employee ratio), differentiation ( measure by size of total assets), focus (measure by profit from conventional banking) and market share (measure by market capitalization and loan to deposit ratio). By doing this research, we can conclude that local banks in Malaysia gain competitive advantage after merger and acquisition.
