Katılım Bankalarında Denetim Kalitesi Ve Kârlılık İlişkisi Üzerine Bir Uygulama

Abstract

As in all commercial enterprises, audit activities are very important in banks. The results of the audit activities reveal how well the activities of the organization are functioning. Audit processes are carried out by committees appointed by the boards of directors. In this study, the effect of audit committee effectiveness on bank profitability is analyzed. The data used in the analysis belong to participation banks operating in Turkey from 2015 to 2021. The selected variables were obtained from reports prepared according to the auditing standards applied in the banking sector. A balanced panel data method is used in the study. As a result of the analysis, a significant and positive relationship was found between the effectiveness of the audit committee and the ratio of net dividend income to assets (NKEK) at a 10% statistical significance level. A one-unit change in audit committee effectiveness affects the dependent variable of the model, NKEK, by 0.9627 units in the same direction. There is no significant relationship between the other independent variable, total assets, and the dependent variable. Banks with an effective audit committee may have a high audit quality. Knowing that they will undergo a high-quality audit process and adjusting internal audit processes accordingly may increase the profitability of banks.
