This study examined the influence of service quality on customer loyalty, and aimed to determine if this relationship was mediated by customer satisfaction. Data were gathered from customers of eight banks in Pakistan through an adapted self-administered questionnaire. Respondents were selected using convenience sampling. The distributed questionnaire was based on a modified SERVQUAL model.479 complete survey responses were returned out of a total of 700 distributed. The completed questionnaires were examined through descriptive statistics, regression analysis, and PROCESS technique (Hayes2013). Results revealed a significant effect of service quality on customer loyalty. Customer satisfaction was found to have a significant mediating effect on the relationship between service quality and customer loyalty. The outcomes of our study could be useful for policy-making in bank management, and future banking expansion.
