Abstract

The financing of Iran's economy is bank-based and more than 80% of the financial needs of the economy are provided by the money market and banking system. This illustrates the importance of the banking system in the growth and development of the Iranian economy. Therefore, the resilient banking system can lead to greater economic resistance. This study investigates the resilience of the banking system in the Iranian economy by focusing on the consumer behavior of the facilities. Since the focus of the study is on consumer behavior (credit risk), among the Camel indices, the capital adequacy ratio and the ratio of non-current facilities to total facilities, the 10-year time series data (2007-2009) for the 10 selected banks Their extracted financial statements have been used. The study of resilience without shock or stress makes no sense. Therefore, the resilience of the banking system against shocks of GDP growth (supply shock), inflation rate (demand shock) and exchange rate shock (external shock) has been studied. So far, no research has been conducted on the relationship between resilience of the banking system and consumer behavior of facilities with this volume of comprehensive information (more than 85% of the country's banking system). The findings show that the banking system in the Iranian economy is not resistant to the shock of these variables and the negative effect of these shocks will be stable over time on the bank health indicators.
