The needed data were collected from two main sources: the financial statements, and the disclosures of the privet commercial banks listed in the Damascus Securities Exchange, the studied sample consists of all listed (11) banks, and the Damascus Securities Exchange reports for the period (2009-2016). For the purposes of analysis, the Pearson correlation coefficient and the multiple linear regression model were used to study the relationship between liquidity and profitability with the banking safety and their impact on it. The results of the study showed that, there is a statistically significant positive correlation between the liquidity ratios (total liquid and semi-liquid assets/ total deposits; total liquid assets/ total deposits; total liquid assets/ total assets) and banking safety in Syrian private commercial banks, there is a statistically significant positive correlation between the profitability ratio (Return On Assets; Return On Equity) and banking safety in Syrian private commercial banks. The study recommended the need to maintain high and good levels of banking safety in Syrian private commercial banks to exceed 20%, and the need to maintain good levels of liquidity and attention in investing shareholders' funds and all bank assets due to their important role in raising the level of banking safety in Syrian private commercial banks, and the study recommended benefiting from the models reached by the study and developing it to more sophisticated models by relying on data for longer periods of time.
