a Summary, etc This paper provides a measure of the probability of financial institutions failure in the North Cyprus banking sector for the period of 1984-2002 using a multivariate logit model. The empirical methodology employed in this analysis allows us to identify the determinants of the likelihood of bank failure in North Cyprus. In this model, bank failure is a function of CAMELS rating system. The CAMELS approach appears to be appropriate for identifying weaknesses specific to individual banks. The empirical findings suggest that inadequate capital, poor asset quality, high interest expenses, low profitability, low liquidity and small asset size are significant variables that determine the likelihood of bank failure in North Cyprus.
