Popis The gradual decrease of interest rates is noticed from the beginning of 2000 to the present. It caused that the risk-taking appetite of banks increased and banks have softened their lending standards. We examine the impact of interest rates on bank risk-taking and on the profitability of banks in this paper. The research is applied on four biggest banks in the Czech Republic and their sister companies operating in a country where the whole group of financial institutions is established. We compare the results and answer following questions. Do low interest rates increase risk-taking appetite of banks in Czech Republic equally as of their sister companies? How Czech banks faces to low interest rates in connection with profitability comparing to their sister companies?
