Summary/Abstract: The aim of this research is to evaluate the evolution of performances of the largest banks in different regions worldwide after the crisis in the 2008. For measuring the performance of the banks we have examined: quality of assets, liquidity, solvency and profitability. We have analyzed the 3 largest banks from United States, European Union (Germany, Austria, Slovenia and Greece) and Macedonia. Our empirical results show that various trends appear during the examined period, when the largest U.S. banks had steadily trended upwards, especially in profits, while their European peers are far behind them, and Macedonian banks standing in the middle of the trends.
