Abstract

In this study, the determinants of bank credit risk are analyzedfor four participation banks that operate in Turkey,by using quarterly data set between 2006 and 2014.The findings of the study suggest that as the ratio of specific provisions in total assets increases, the credit risk shall also increase. Conversely, the increase of the ratio of loans in total assets, or the increase of the participation banks’ size, results in lower credit risk for the participating banks.
