Abstract:

The study aimes to investigate the impact of CAMELS' components on the element of credit's risks. Thus, to achieve the purpose of this study, the researchers formulated a key hypothesis which assumes that there is no significant effect of the components of CAMELS' model on the credit's risks that could face commercial banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange Securities. The researcher used the SPSS statistical program to examine the study hypotheses. The study reveales that the model components altogether affect the element of credit's risk in Jordanian Commercial Banks, whereas when we examine the impact of each element of the model separately on credit's risk, the results are as follows: There is an effect for the sufficiency of the capital, assets quality, revenues quality and the market risks sensitive on the credit's risks. As for the elements of the management quality and liquidity quality, they have no impact on credit's risks.

The study recommends that it's important for these banks to commit to applying the model because of its vital role in discovering the risks early.

Key words: CAMELS' Model, Credits' Risks.
