ROE only for a point of time you have follow for a long time. And if we see ROE
is increasing for a long time then it indicates Company has utilizes shareholder’s
equity in a good manner. And in other hand is we see decreasing ROE it means
Company Management use equity in unproductive assets.

savings of  giving dividend, all expenses, tax. If you see one year Retain
Earning and after that year company’s ROE will be increasing it is good sign.
Company uses that Retain Earning in a good project to enhance profit.

 


But you should not invest solely on ROE as it does not include the company’s debt quota. It tells our how company uses equity.
