This analysis performed in order to examines the determinants of bank
profitability in the UK for the time period 2007 to 2018. For the
aforementioned reason a set of internal (bank-specific) and external
macroeconomic factors are employed. Moreover, this study encompasses a
balanced panel data of 32 commercial UK banks, in order to perform the
investigation. The models are structured having as measurement of
profitability the variables of Return on Average Assets (ROAA), Return on
Average Equity (ROAE) and Net Interest Margin (NIM) respectively.
The results indicate that bank profitability is not only affected by
internal/bank specific factors, but also by macroeconomic indicators. In
general it could be assumed that the the results of the research are in line with
those expected, as well as with the prior literture review on the topic of the
bank performance and profitability, even though some inconsistences have
been found.
