Abstract
This article explains results of a comparative to test the performance of two top banks in the German banking industry analysis using a financial ratio analysis method. The main determinants considered are solvency and liquidity indicators, which make it possible to observe the risk behaviour of banks before and after the financial crisis. The hypothesis of the study is that the behaviour of German banks depends on bank-specific variables that affect the institution ’s loan policy. The universal banks in Germany can be divided into three main types of institutions: commercial, public sector and cooperative banks. The analysis is carried out on banks of the same category in a decomposed manner. Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank representing the commercial/Private sector. Checking each Bank separately is carried out to detect the similarities or differences that each bank may have in terms of bank performance. The empirical analysis involves a sample of these German banks observed during 2015–2019.
Highlights
According to international standards, the most important and prominent feature of the German banking system is that it is still a three-pillar system today
The central concern of the paper has been to conduct a comparative performance of two banks in Germany for the period of 2004–2009. five groups of parameters have been used to measure liquidity level, profitability level, management capacity, capital structure and share performance. the findings show that both banks cannot boast of a financially viable future as both have shown signs of lack of appropriate application of financial management tools and policies to manage their organizations and to adapt with their environment, in order to become more competitive and maximizing their profits
The research findings show that Commerzbank possesses high profitability level with high level of instability
Summary
В работе, посредством метода анализа финансовых соотношений, описаны результаты сравнительного анализа, нацеленного на оценку производительности двух крупных банков Германии. Основными определяющими факторами послужили показатели платежеспособности и ликвидности, которые позволяют оценить поведение в условиях риска до и после финансового кризиса. В настоящем исследовании было допущено, что поведение немецких банков зависит от определенных параметров банка, которые непосредственно влияют на кредитную политику определенного учреждения. Универсальные банки Германии можно поделить на три основные категории: коммерческие, государственные, кооперативные. В исследовании принимались во внимание описанные выше категории банков. Deutsche Bank и Commerzbank представляют категорию коммерческих банков. Каждый банк рассматривался по отдельности для выявления сходств и различий в вопросах производительности. В приведенном анализе предложены результаты наблюдения за этими банками в период с 2015 по 2019 гг. Ключевые слова: банк, финансовый кризис, прибыльность, анализ финансовой производительности
