Abstract

This paper uses data envelopment analysis (DEA) to analyze the efficiency of the Georgian commercial banks from 2011 to 2018 years. Paper analyses the scale and technical efficiency of banks. The results show that banks efficiencies are not much changed in sample years, average efficiency is 0.67 while scale efficiency is 0.877. The results also reveal the input excess and output shortfalls. Banks in Georgia has highly input excess compared to results in other findings.
