Zusammenfassung / Abstract

There are currently many issues which have a huge influence on our banking system. The low interest environment, the high debts of many states and the stricter regulatory requirements as a consequence of the financial crisis are just some. In this thesis, the interest risk of savings banks and their risk provisioning in the form of earnings management to meet the mentioned upcoming challenges are the two central issues.
