A Dea and Tobit Analysis of the Determinants of Cost and Profit Efficiency in the Turkish Banking Sector

This paper aims to determine the factors affecting cost and profit efficiency of commercial banks in Turkey and to examine the ownership effect on cost and profit efficiency in an emerging market. Another aim of the study is to carry out the most recent and longitudinal (2006-2020) analysis of effi...

A Dea and Tobit Analysis of the Determinants of Cost and Profit Efficiency in the Turkish Banking Sector
description This paper aims to determine the factors affecting cost and profit efficiency of commercial banks in Turkey and to examine the ownership effect on cost and profit efficiency in an emerging market. Another aim of the study is to carry out the most recent and longitudinal (2006-2020) analysis of efficiency in the Turkish banking industry. This study uses an intermediation approach with data envelopment analysis (DEA) as its methodology. A total of 23 commercial banks were selected as the study sample and their quarterly data from 2006- 2020 was collected. In addition, an external two-stage DEA model with Tobit regression was applied to examine the determinants of cost and profit efficiency. The results show that Turkish banks currently work with relatively higher cost efficiency than profit efficiency. On the other hand, foreign banks display a lower cost and profit efficiency performance. The downward trend in profit efficiency in the Turkish banking system sends a warning signal on the health and stability of the banking sector.
