 The Relationship between Risk Management and Profitability of Commercial Banks in AlbaniaArjeta Hallunovi () and Miranda Berdo () Asian Themes in Social Sciences Research, 2018, vol. 1, issue 2, 44-49 Abstract: Profitability is an indicator of the capacity of commercial banks to cope with their risk and/or capital growth, showing their competitiveness and measuring the quality of management. Credit risk is one of the significant risks of commercial banks by the nature of their activities. By effectively managing the exposure of commercial banks to credit risk, they not only support the viability and profitability of their business but also contribute to the system, stability and efficient allocation of capital to the economy. The purpose of the study was to determine whether there is a relationship between credit risk management and profitability in commercial banks in Albania. In this paper, there are four variables: ROA and ROE are the dependent variables, whereas non-performing loans (NPLs) and capital adequacy (CAR) are the independent variables. The main source of data collection are the annual reports for a 7-year period (2008-2015) by the Albanian Association of Banks. For quantitative data analysis, multiple regression model was used (SPSS). Keywords: Albania; Commercial banks; Profitability; ROE; ROA.
