  • Abstract
    In order to determine the firm-specific factors affecting financial performance and the relationship between these factors and the performance, a panel data set of 102 observations were obtained for the sample of 17 life insurance companies operating in Turkey for the period 2008–2013. In this study, financial performance of insurance companies was measured by return on assets (ROA). As a result of the research, it has been identified that age of company and gross written premiums have a significant and positive effect on return on assets. However, size of company, current ratio, and insurance leverage ratio have a significant and negative impact on return on assets.
