Credit risk has a negative and significant effect on financial performance. This study suggests that managers of banks, especially bank go public, pay more attention to the variable intellectual capital in the sense that any additional investment in the 3 IC components (human capital, structural capital and capital employed) can be efficiently used to create value added and increase company value. IC is the only source of value creator in the future, which implicitly utilizes tangible and intangible assets and mitigates risk optimally. Recommendations for further research can expand the general banking sector population in longer research periods to get better results.
