Özet:

The aim of this study is to investigate the changes of efficiency in the Turkish Banking Sector for the years between 2002 – 2011. The Turkish economic system was hit by two serious financial crises in the late 1990s and early 2000s and as a result economic system collapsed in 2001. It is obvious that the strong finance sector is crucial for the economy as a whole and the banking sector is the most important part of a financial sector in Turkey. The financial resources are collected and allocated to the real sector through banking sector. In this context analysis of the financial sector, which will contribute to operate efficiently, is great of importance. Within this framework in the present study some different efficiency measuring techniques have been introduced. The widely used non-parametric Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is considered one of these techniques and Malmquist Productivity Indices (MPI) is used to investigate the levels and the changes in the efficiency.
