Our empirical results proved that high operations cost in the domestic banks, credit risk measured by capital to assets ratio, absence of competition, and less diversified income sources are the main contributing factors. Further market interest rate negatively relates with bank interest margin and it shows that deposit rates of the banking sector in Sri Lanka are more sensitive to the falling interest rates. Further, ownership of the bank and opportunity cost measured by liquidity assets to total assets ratio are insignificant. Even though bank concentration ratio is insignificant in the model, still Sri Lankan commercial banks use their individual market power for pricing decisions.
