Bu araştırmada Türk bankacılık sisteminde faaliyet gösteren 12 adet bankanın 2013-2018 dönemi finansal performansı karşılaştırmalı olarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmada sermaye yeterlilik, kârlılık, aktif kalitesi, likidite ve gelir-gider yapısı oranlarından oluşan 13 adet finansal oran kullanılarak kamu bankalarının, özel bankaların, yabancı bankaların ve katılım bankalarının finansal performansı ölçülmüştür. Ampirik analizlerde banka grupları arasındaki farklılığı tespit edebilmek için tek yönlü anova ile post-hoc testlerden Bonferroni testi kullanılmıştır.Analiz sonuçlarına göre sermaye yeterliliğinde özel bankaların, kârlılıkta kamu bankalarının daha iyi performans sergilediği ifade edilebilir. Buna karşın katılım bankalarının takipteki net kredilerinin toplam aktiflere oranı yüksek aynı zamanda TP likit aktiflerinin toplam aktiflere oranı ise düşüktür. Net faiz gelirlerinin toplam aktiflere oranında ise en başarılı performansı yabancı bankalar göstermektedir.

The data is obtained from the clubs' websites and annual reports. It is concluded that Manchester City FC has the highest financial performance while Juventus FC has the lowest. It is also determined that liquidity and short-term debt/equity ratios are the most important performance indicators for football clubs.

This research aims to determine the most crucial financial performance indicators for Islamic banks and to rank Islamic countries according to their financial performance. In line with the purpose of the research, entropy and Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) methods were used to examine 10 selected Islamic countries (Turkey, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Jordan, Kuwait, Nigeria, Oman, Pakistan, and the UAE) using annual data for the 2013–2020 period. The results of the entropy method showed that the financial performance of Islamic banking is mostly affected by the net non-performing loans ratio and profitability ratios. The results of the WASPAS method indicated that the country with the highest financial performance was Bangladesh. It was followed by Jordan, Turkey, Pakistan, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Malaysia, Indonesia, Kuwait, and Nigeria, respectively. The lowest financial performance was that of Oman. A low non-performing loan ratio leads to higher financial performance and is of greater importance than profitability ratios, as expected. This study offers a way for the managers of Islamic banks to enhance their financial performance by determining effective financial performance indicators. It also reveals the differences among the selected Islamic countries in terms of financial ratios. The research represents a preliminary study that provides evidence for a selected country group using entropy and WASPAS methods.

The aim of this research is to investigate the causality between Global Economic Political Uncertainty (GEPU) and Geopolitical Risk (GPRT) and Bitcoin Energy Consumption (BTCE). In order to test the stationarity of the variables, the Lee-Strazich unit root test, which takes into account the structural breaks, was used, and the causality relationship between the variables was analyzed with the Hatemi-J (2012) causality test. Monthly data between May 2011 and February 2022 were used in the research. According to the results obtained from the research, geopolitical risk and global economic policy uncertainity are effective on bitcoin energy consumption. In addition, it has been determined that the negative effects of geopolitical risk and global uncertainties are more dominant. The results show that the demand for bitcoin, which is considered an alternative financial asset class, and accordingly bitcoin energy consumption, increases in case of global risks and economic uncertainties.

Purpose-The purpose of this research is to reveal the effect of firms' intellectual capital on financial performance. Firms invest in intangible assets as well as tangible assets in order to gain competitive advantage (Atan ve Tuncer, 2019). Within the scope of intangible fixed assets, the most investment is made to intellectual capital. Intellectual capital has three basic dimensions: human capital, structural capital and customer capital (Soylu, 2020). In the 21st century, where technology changes and develops very rapidly, companies create added value by using their intellectual capital and turn the added value into profit. In this respect, intellectual capital is knowledge that can turn into profit (Çetin, 2005). Methodology-The intellectual capital levels of companies operating in the Borsa Istanbul Industrial Index were measured by the Intellectual Value Added Coefficient (VAIC) method for the period of 2015-2019. The relationship between the obtained coefficient and financial performance indicators, return on assets ratio (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and Tobin's Q ratio, was analyzed by panel data method. Findings-According to the results of the research, there is a statistically significant and positive relationship between the intellectual capital coefficient and profitability rates and Tobin's Q ratio. Conclusion-The results obtained show the positive effect of intellectual capital on firm performance. Companies can focus on intellectual capital investments and increase their productivity for sustainable financial performance.
