Establishing sustainable and balanced development for green financing is critical for improving financial sustainability and banks' capability. Banks struggle to achieve economic sustainability in the current highly competitive business environment. This research examines the impact of income diversification on financial sustainability proxy by return on assets (ROA) by applying the quantile regression technique to the data from banks of ASEAN countries over the period 2008-2019. In addition, liquidity risk, bank size, interest and non-interest incomes, and market capitalization are studied as control variables. The empirical findings indicate that income diversification positively impacts return on assets at all countries' lower, middle, and upper quantiles, even though sizes can differ across countries and quantiles. Moreover, market capitalization, non-interest income, and banks' size favorably impact banks' performance. In contrast, liquidity risk and interest incomes are negatively linked to the performance of banks for all countries at each quantile. These results have significant strategic implications for managers, regulators, and policymakers who share a common interest in boosting financial sustainability and performance and significantly shaping green recovery.
