Abstract: The importance of corporate governance and the essential role of banks as important financial institutions in a free capital market attract more attention of researchers and academicians to identify the relationship among corporate governance and banking performance. In the light of that, the paper seeks to specify the variables of corporate governance and banking financial performance through measuring the governance impacts variables on banking performance through an empirical study on banks during 2005-2014 in the Middle East. A strong relationship between these variables and banking financial performance is determined where is a positive relationship among the return on assets and the board of directors and on another hand a negative relationship is found between the banking performance and owner concentrations.
