Banking Efficiency Boosted by Net Interest Margin, Hindered by Non-Performing Loans
The study looked at how factors like Loan Deposit Ratio, Non-Performing Loans, and Net Interest Margin affect a bank's profitability, measured by Return on Assets. They also examined if ATMs play a role in this relationship. The researchers found that Loan Deposit Ratio and Non-Performing Loans have a negative impact on Return on Assets, while Net Interest Margin has a positive impact. Interestingly, ATMs did not moderate the influence of these factors on Return on Assets.
