Abstract

The purpose of this study is to classify the commercial banks in Kosovo in cohesive categories on the basis of their financial characteristics revealed by the financial ratios. A total of five commercial banks were financially analyzed, and simple comparative was used to estimate the impact of asset management, operational efficiency, and bank size on the financial performance of these banks. The study found that the bank with higher total capital, deposits, credits, or total assets does not always mean that it has better profitability performance.
