Abstract

With the crisis that started in our country in 2000s, those who owe the bank could not complete their payment obligations, the collection process was damaged and thus the number of problematic loans increased. However, as a result of structural deterioration, bank mergers were experienced, banks' capital was strengthened and many of them were seized by TMSF. This situation has created a distrust of the banking system. In order to change the negative perception, problematic loans which prevent the flow of funds should be solved. At this stage, Asset Management Company has become a need and started to operate in the financial markets of our country. The Asset Management Companies were established in the 1930s to solve the financial problems arising from the global economic crisis.

As a method of the study, domestic and foreign literature has been utilized and as a result of the study, it has been concluded that this problem has a positive effect on credit customers and banking system upon the transfer of problem loans to asset management companies.
