Abstract: In this study¡ the impact of some institutional factors such as¡ macroeconomic conditions and country's political stability on the efficiency of Iranian's banking system during 1372-1387¡ is investigated. The Vector Auto Regression analyses are chosen for this purpose. We found that¡ in Iranian banking system¡ on average¡ banks are able to save 35-45 percent of their total cost if they were operating efficiently. Another important finding of the paper is that in Iranians context¡ there is a significant and negative relationship exists between inflation rate indexes as a proxy for macroeconomic stability condition and banking efficiency.
