Abstract: The adequacy of bank capital according to its risks is one of the leading conditions for the protection of its financial system. In this study, the long-term cointegration relationship between the capital adequacy ratio (CAR) variable of the Turkish banking sector for the period 2010-2022 and the NPL ratio and loan deposit ratio variables was investigated. As a result of the Johansen cointegration test, the existence of a long-term cointegration relationship between the variables was determined. Moreover, according to the estimation results of FMOLS and DOLS cointegration regressions, it was seen that the NPL ratio was positively related to CAR and the loan-deposit ratio was negatively related. This result shows that there is a long-term relationship between NPL ratio, which is an indicator of banks' credit quality, and loandeposit ratio, which is a structural liquidity indicator, and CAR.
