Abstract

The goal of this paper is to examine the determinants of profitability of the 16 banks
in the Republic of Macedonia using quarterly data from Q1 2007 to Q4 2013. As a
measure of profitability of the banks we will use the ratio of return on assets and the
ratio of return on equity. Empirical results provide evidence that among internal
factors of bank profitability, the most important ones are credit risk management
capital to total assets ratio and operating expense management. From the external
determinants, we found only the inflation to be significant for bank profitability.
