In addition, with the implementation of interest rate liberalization and Internet finance, Chinese banking industry are facing not only the impact from foreign banks, but also the brutal competition of domestic financial markets. Therefore, the preferred solution for banks is to improve their profitability, thus enhance their own competitiveness. Therefore, this paper tries to make a tentative study for the determinants of commercial bank profitability.
