Abstract: Profitability of the banking sector improved as a result of the reforms made within the framework of the Banking Sector Restructuring Program which was put into force in May 2001 in order to resolve permanently the problems of Turkish banking sector. In this study, profitability performance of Turkish banking sector between 2002-2008 is analyzed by ratio analysis method through decom- posing return on equity ratio by grouping banks as per their func- tions and ownership structure. Profitability of the banking sector increased in general in the period analyzed, however profitability ratios decreased in 2008 due to the developments experienced in global markets.
