Abstract

This study explores the factors affecting capital adequacy ratio (CAR) of banks in Ghana relying on data for commercial banks spanning2008-2017. More specifically, the study investigates the effect of bank-specific and macroeconomic factors on CAR. Evidence from the systemgeneralized method of moments (GMM) reveals that banks' capital adequacy level is significantly driven by bank size, leverage, and broad moneysupply. The findings also posit that while bank profitability positively influences capital adequacy, the effect is insignificant. The study recommends theimplementation of efficient policies geared towards enhancing bank size, leverage decisions, and money supply.

Özet

Bu çalışma, 2008-2017 arasındaki ticari banka verilerine dayanarak Gana'daki bankaların sermaye yeterlilik oranını (CAR) etkileyen faktörleri araştırmaktadır. Daha spesifik olarak, çalışma bankaya özgü ve makroekonomik faktörlerin CAR üzerindeki etkisini incelemektedir. Sistem genelleştirilmiş momentler yönteminden (GMM) elde edilen kanıtlar, bankaların sermaye yeterliliği seviyesinin önemli ölçüde banka büyüklüğü, kaldıraç ve geniş para arzı tarafından yönlendirildiğini göstermektedir. Bulgular ayrıca, banka kârlılığının sermaye yeterliliğini olumlu yönde etkilerken, bu etkinin önemsiz olduğunu da göstermektedir. Çalışma, banka büyüklüğünü, kaldıraç kararlarını ve para arzını artırmaya yönelik etkin politikaların uygulanmasını önermektedir.
