The risk management processes at banks, need to be better integrated with their business and operating models. For this, risk management needs to be viewed as a key part of strategy and operations and go well beyond merely being a compliance exercise. Besides, there is a need to incorporate risk-based capital performance measures and stress testing more centrally into business decision-making processes. The purpose of this research is to investigate whether a relationship exists between credit risk management and profitability of scheduled commercial banks in India. In order to test our hypothesis, the multivariate regression was used. Findings indicate that there is a positive relationship between credit risk management and profitability of scheduled commercial banks.
