The analitycal framework incorporates variables encompassing mobile and internet banking transactions, bank size, economic growth, and a COVID-19-related dummy variable. The study’s banking yielding a positive impact and internet banking showing a negative effect. However, bank size and economic growth do not exhibit statistically significant relationships with profitability. The COVID-19 pandemic negatively affects banking profitability.
