The current
research looks at how asset risk affects the bottom lines of government-owned
banks. The results reveal that asset risk significantly impacts commercial
bankers' bottom lines. Net profits for commercial banks tend to decrease when
asset risk is included. Twelve commercial banks are in the public sector, but
only five have been chosen for their convenient locations. The years 2005-2006
through 2018-2019 are included in the analysis.

The overall analysis of the examined banks highlights poor recovery efforts. During the period under review, they witnessed a significant surge in defaults, resulting in heightened asset risk for financial institutions. Urgent action is required to ensure banks' solvency due to the adverse impact of asset risk on profitability. To increase profits, banks should employ innovative strategies to recover funds from dormant, lost, and written-off accounts. Approving loans only after comprehensive due diligence, including assessing applicants' credit history, creditworthiness, and collateral condition, can enhance banks' ability to recover funds in case of default.
