This study aims to analyze the components that affect the financial stability of Islamic Rural Banks (BPRS). This study uses a quantitative approach by relying on secondary data in the form of BPRS financial statements published on the Financial Services Authority website. The sample used in this study consisted of 27 BPRS operating in West Java during the period 2013-2023, which were selected by purposive sampling method. To analyze the data, this study uses the panel data regression method so that it is possible to test the effect of bank-specific factors and macroeconomic indicators on the financial stability of BPRS. The findings of this study indicate that bank size and NPF have a significant negative effect on the financial stability of BPRS. While GDP growth and open unemployment rate have no effect on the financial stability of BPRS.
