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.

Keywords
