Some Factors Affecting Bank Managers’ Risk Perception

Year 2001, Volume: 19 Issue: 2, 39 - 56, 31.12.2001

Abstract


 





This study investigates the issue of whether
some demographic factors and institutional characteristics affect the risk
taking resiliency of bank managers. Our findings indicate that,  for the representative group of bank managers
and assistant managers in Ankara – Turkey, the factors such as the sector of
the bank, age and the years of experience in banking affect the bank managers’
tendency towards taking risk. The results reveal that managers who are working
in the private banks, are younger and have less banking experience are more
willing to take risks.

BANKA YÖNETİCİLERİNİN RİSK ALGISINI ETKİLEYEN FAKTÖRLER

Year 2001, Volume: 19 Issue: 2, 39 - 56, 31.12.2001

Abstract

Bu çalışma, bazı demografik faktörler ile
kurumsal özelliklerin banka yöneticilerinin risk alma eğilimini etkileyip
etkilemediğini belirlemeye yöneliktir. Ankara’daki bankalarda görevli müdür ve
müdür yardımcıları açısından bakıldığında; çalışmaya katılan yöneticilerin
yaşlarının, bankacılık sektöründeki deneyimlerinin ve çalıştıkları banka
sektörünün, risk alma eğilimlerini etkilediği belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen
sonuçlara göre, bankacılık sektöründeki deneyimi kısa olan, genç ve özel
bankalarda yönetici konumunda olanlar risk almaya diğer yöneticilerden daha
eğilimli görünmektedirler.
