Factors that affect banks＇ performance can be macroeconomic or internal factors relevant with banks. In this study, different internal factors that can have an impact on banks＇ profitability are examined with panel data analysis. The dataset which include 22 private, state or foreign owned deposit banks provided from the Association of Turkish Banking. Data contains the period between 2003-2008. Equity profitability has been chosen as dependent variable. Independent variables are market share and number of branches. According to the regression results, market share and number of branches has positive and significant effect on profitability .展开更多

All this is happening in a city where relevant architectural references have not been produced for a long while because of the prolonged economic crisis of the past. Despite these conditions, people were able to detect “invisible” design lessons to be learned in this city by sharing perceptual experiences with foreign observers who are, by definition, unaware of their preconceptions. This paper deals with the development of a strategy for re-presenting design references that are locally rooted and accessible for direct embodied experience. The strategy put forward a MPI （metropolitan performance index） drawn out from a bibliographical survey coupled with analytical spatial diagrams of different case-studies presented as a tour guide for the recognition of the architecture produced in Rio de Janeiro. It is believed that this strategy can favor the adoption of an eye attuned to contemporary theories especially interested in the spatial and programmatic concerns that today instigate the designer.展开更多
