Abstract: The purpose of this research study is to establish if there is systematic risk and if it has impact on profitability, liquidity of the banks in Europe. This study used various financial performance ratios of 100 banks operating in different European countries to investigate if such relationship exists over a five-year period (2012 to 2016). Before working on systematic risk evaluation, we need to know that in order to shape up the financial structure of any firm the operating performance has importance. It is expected that the outcomes of this research are very important in both perspective of investors and bank managers, as these findings will help them to fully analyse the effects of various strategic choices keeping in view related to risk profile of banks. Some implications of the potential policy which are based on the new capital requirements in view of the risk-leverage relationship have also been discussed in this study.
