الملخص

The purpose of this paper is to identify the determinants of board size. In other words, it is aimed to determine the corporate governance variables and firm-specific internal factors that determine the board size of banks. For these purposes, the data of 10 banks whose stocks were traded in Borsa Istanbul (BIST) between 2010-2020 were used in the research. Balanced panel data analysis was used in the study. Unit root tests, cross-section dependence, heteroskedasticity tests, and White Period Standard Errors and Covariance Method were used in empirical analysis. According to the analysis results; there is a positive and statistically significant relationship between board size and return on assets, foreign board member ratio, supervisory board member ratio, duality, and total assets. On the other hand, there is a negative relationship between the size of the board of directors and the market value/book value, free float ratio, the capital share of the largest shareholder, the ratio of female and independent board members.
