Abstract: The objective of this research is to study the impact of the sale of insurance products on the technical efficiency of Tunisian banks for the period 2003-2011 using DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) method. Our results suggest that this efficiency is valued at a score of 60.1 %; commissions paid to banks by insurance companies positively affect their technical efficiency.
