Abstract: We are exploring the impacts of green credit policy, bank competition, and bank-specific variables on bank profitability in Indonesia. We found that the green credit policy did not hinder the bank from distributing credit. Instead, it can help banks distribute high-quality credit, improving their profitability and decreasing non-performing loans. We also found that competition can improve bank profitability. Bank-specific variables such as bank size, capitalisation, and cost efficiency correlate to increased bank profitability. Meanwhile, an increase in non-performing loans can reduce bank profitability, and bank profitability is unaffected by liquidity, diversification, and labour productivity.
