Abstract

This study investigates the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the performance of conventional and participation banks in Turkey. Panel data with random effects was the main analysis methodology adopted by the study. The data of ten banks was analysed within the range of 2015-2021. The results of the combined analyses could not establish any impact of the pandemic on the profitability of both groups of banks. The same result is also observed when the analysis is conducted on both groups separately. In contrast, a negative impact on the operational efficiency of banks was observed when the analysis was conducted on the two sets of the banks combined. Interestingly, the results suggest that the pandemic had a negative impact on the operational efficiency of participation banks but not on conventional banks when the analysis was conducted on the two sets of the banks separately.
