The aim of this study is to measure the earnings quality of the Turkish banking sector within the framework of market-based models.

In the measurement of earnings quality, conservatism, value relationship and timeliness measurement models, which are among the market-based models, were examined. According to the analysis results of the study; surveyed banks have a conservative attitude in terms of earnings quality; The results show that the level of value relationship, which is defined as the ability of banks to explain the market prices of their earnings, is low and the banking sector has a positive attitude in terms of timeliness.
