The results of model estimation show that the effect of monetary policy indicators on banks' risk-taking is positive and significant in all regressions. When central banks reduce interest rates with the goal of expansionary monetary policy, They increase the riskiness of banks and as interest rates fall, Banking risk increases. The results show that foreign and state-owned banks are more risky than domestic private banks due to political interference or implicit government support. Also, increasing the growth rate of GDP increases financial stability and reduces banking risk. The impact of favorable external economic shocks also increases financial stability, and as foreign markets grow, banks in emerging economies can benefit from financing companies that are affiliated with foreign markets, and banking risk is reduced.
