Intellectual Capital and Value Creation : Evidence from the Portuguese Banking Industry

Intellectual capital has been described as intangible assets that may be used as a source of sustainable competitive advantage. However, intellectual capital components have to interact, to create value. Previous studies demonstrate that intellectual capital is positively and significantly associated with organizational performance. Our aim is to consolidate these findings, examining the inter-relationships and the interaction effects among intellectual capital components and organizational performance, in the Portuguese banking context.
