Abstract: The financial sector, in general, has been established to match the supply and demand of the funds. The suppliers demand interest gain from the banks in return of giving up liquidity, and the investors in need of funds demand payment for a specific interest rate. From the perspective of banks, the interest given to those who supply the funds is the cost of resource, and the interest obtained from the demanders is the revenue. To create a balance between those revenues and resources is the subject of interest rate risk analysis. The aim of this study is to research the methods of coping with interest rate risk and the interest rate risk analysis methods being applied, and to observe the applications in Turkish banking sector.
