The key purpose of this work would be the impact of global financial crisis on the profitability trend of the local and foreign commercial bank in Malaysia whether internal factors such as management efficiency or external factors in which the macroeconomics factors give the most impact on the different levels of profitability. The panel data set was used to conduct an empiric analysis of seven local and foreign commercial banks.
