Abstract: In this study, a comparative performance analysis between state-owned and privately-owned commercial banks of Bangladesh is carried out over the period between 2006 and 2010. On the contrary to expectations, statistical findings of the study produce surprising results. The results suggest that state-owned banks are as efficient as private banks but Private Banks have much higher mean values relative to public bank. Thus, it raises the question of ‘‘whether to privatize banks or not?’’
