The COVID-19 pandemic has affected bank lending growth to the point of decreasing banking profitability. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the differences in the performance of conventional banks and Islamic banks before and after the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia. This study uses secondary data with a quantitative approach. The performance is measured using four financial ratios: CAR, ROA, LDR or FDR, and BOPO. The population in this study is conventional banking and Islamic banking in Indonesia. The observation period for this study starts from pre-COVID-19 in June 2016 to March 2019 and post-COVID-19 from March 2020 to June 2023. The hypotheses were tested using the paired T-test and the one-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for normally distributed data. The results of the one-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test on conventional banks show that whether there is a distinction between the performance of conventional banks and Islamic banks before and after the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia. The results of the graphic investigation indicate that there are financial ratios that have experienced an increase in performance, to be specific the CAR, ROA, and BOPO proportions, whereas the FDR or LDR tend to encounter a decrease in performance after COVID-19. There was an increase and decrease between before and after the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in each proportion, which is still in the category with healthy and good banking qualification.
