The Impact of Country Credit Risk Management on the Egyptian Commercial Banks’ Performance - The Moderating Role of Country Liquidity Risk Management

Abstract

: The purpose of this study is to investigate how country liquidity risk management influences the potential impact of country credit risk management on the performance of the commercial banks sector in Egypt. The research methodology employed an empirical approach, collecting secondary data from the Egyptian banking sector spanning from 2012 to 2022. This analysis focuses on the three largest commercial banks dominating the Egyptian market, namely the National Bank of Egypt (NBE), Banque Misr (BM), and Banque du Caire (BdC). Three hypotheses were formulated, and empirical time-series simple linear and multiple regression models were utilized to test these hypotheses. The findings confirm the validity of all three hypotheses and provide insights into the relationships among the variables outlined in these hypotheses. Notably, the results align with the expected theoretical impact . For
