Participation Banks are an alternative financial
institution that contributes to the development and deepening of the financial
system in the Turkish Banking Sector. In this study, the relationship between participation banks,
non-performing loans, gross domestic product, and asset size in the period
2005: Q1-2018: Q2 was investigated by using the co-integration, Granger
causality tests and regression analysis methods. The results of the Granger
causality test show that there is a one-way causality relationship between
non-performing loans to gross domestic product and the gross domestic product
to asset size, but there is a double causality relationship between
non-performing loans and asset size. In the results of empirical analysis, a
statistically significant relationship was found between both gross domestic
product and asset size, and non-performing loans. In this context, it is
determined that there is a negative relationship between non-performing loans
and gross domestic product. On the other hand, it was determined that the asset
size of the participation banking sector increased and the non-performing loans
were affected in the same direction.

Global competition enables countries' advantageous sectors to stand out as an indicator of their economic power. The importance of these sectors may vary by country or the time period they operate in. The textile industry is one of the sectors that significantly contributes to Turkey's economic growth. Thus, it is important to monitor the financial activities of the firms in the textile sector as a performance indicator since it is evident that the financial efficiency of each company will contribute positively to the overall efficiency of the whole sector. In this study, the financial activities of 19 firms in the textile sector being traded on Borsa Istanbul (BIST) for the period 2008-2017 are examined. For efficiency analysis, DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) -Window Analysis method was applied by using financial indicators of these companies. It was observed that the highest average efficiency value of the companies was realized in 2017 with 94.09%. The average activity levels in other years were found to be in the range of 60%-90%. In the empirical analysis, the efficiency values of the top five companies were determined to be at the level of 90%-100%. DESA has achieved the most successful performance in average efficiencies with a score of 98.04 when the whole period is considered. SÖNMEZ and MENDERES firms have taken the second and the third places with scores of 97.40 and 94.74, respectively. The close performances of the top three firms were also observed in three-years windows. However, in the three-year window analysis, SÖNMEZ ranked the first, DESA ranked the second and MENDERES ranked the third according to their average scores. One of the reasons for this small difference between the rankings is that, firstly, the firms' performances have been very close to each other, and secondly the effect of the low score (76.11) obtained by SÖNMEZ in 2008 has been diminished for the firm in the three-year window analysis. KARSU occupied the last place with the lowest average efficiency score in both rankings.
