Increase in losses borne by banks as a result of inadequate operational risk management practices and the adverse impact on banks’ financial performance has been a major concern to bank management and regulators. This study analysed the impact of operational risk management practices on the financial performance of commercial banks in Nigeria. 10-years (2008 - 2017) secondary data extracted from audited financial statements of selected commercial banks in Nigeria was used for the study. The data was analysed using the Linear Multiple Regression Model. The results showed that there is a positive relationship between operational risk management and the financial performance of banks. The findings revealed that sound operational risk management practices impact positively on the financial performance of banks. We, therefore, recommend that banks’ management should deploy adequate resources towards understanding operational risk to ensure sound operational risk management and improved financial performance of banks.

The financial crisis and resulting failure of large banks worldwide has shaken the entire world. Improper management of operational risk has been touted as one of the reasons for this failure. In light of the rising importance of operational risk management (ORM) in banks, the study explores the range of ORM practices followed by a cross section of Indian banks and compares them with the banks worldwide. The study also analyses the impact of size and ownership of banks on these practices. Reliability analysis using Cronbach alpha model, Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy and Bartlett’s test of sphericity was used to test reliability of questionnaire and justifies the use of factor analysis. Factor analysis was performed to extract the most important variables in ORM. The small size of bank was observed to be a deterrent to deep involvement of operational risk functionaries, collection and usage of external loss data and data collection and analysis. Further, the performance/preparedness of public sector and old private sector banks lagged behind peers in usage of key reporting components, such as risk and control self-assessment (RCSA), key risk indicators (KRI), scenarios, collection and usage of external loss data, data collection and analysis and quantification and modelling of operational risk.

<p align="center"><strong><em>Abstract</em></strong><strong><em> </em></strong></p><p><em>This study was conducted to examine the impact of risk management on the financial performance of conventional banks in Indonesia. Effective and efficient banking industry financial performance from time to time is highly expected to maintain banking financial stability itself and even the stability of a country. The increase in losses borne by banks as a result of inadequate risk management practices is a major concern of bank management and regulators. The data tested in this study is conventional bank data that listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2015-2019 period. Data analysis using Multiple Linear Regression Model. The results show that there is a significant relationship between market risk management (NIM), operational risk management (BOPO) and liquidity risk management (LDR) with bank financial performance (ROA). Meanwhile, credit risk management (NPL) has no effect on bank financial performance (ROA). For this reason, it can be said that adequate risk management practices as demonstrated by the ratio of interest rate risk, liquidity risk and operational risk are the main driving factors for profitability for the banking sector in Indonesia</em>. <em>Therefore, bank management must mobilize resources to understand a sound risk management system which in turn will have an impact on improving the bank's financial performance.</em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords:</em></strong><strong> </strong><strong><em>Conventional Banks, Risk Management, Financial Performance</em></strong><strong>.</strong><strong></strong></p>

The paper is set to analyse the impact of credit risk management on the financial performance of commercial banks in Uganda for a period of 2006–2015 using panel data for a sample of 20 commercial banks. The study employs return on assets as a dependent variable and non‑performing loans, growth in interest earnings and loan loss provisions to total loans as credit risk measures. Secondary data is sourced from the Bank scope database, African development bank and the central bank of Uganda. The study employs descriptive statistics, regressions and correlation analysis. Regression models are to estimate the magnitude of significance of credit risk management on the performance of commercial banks in Uganda. The study revealed that credit risk management impacts on the performance of Ugandan commercial banks. The results portrayed that banks’ performance was inversely influenced by non‑performing loans which may expose them to large magnitudes of illiquidity and financial crisis. Thus given such results, the researcher recommends that banks need to enhance their credit risk management techniques not only to earn more profits but also to maintain a qualitative asset portfolio and attention be given to non‑performing loans, loan loss provision to total loans and growth in interest earnings that were found to be significant. Banks need to design appropriate credit policies that must handle all necessary conditions before advancing credit to their customers and also develop strong credit administration committees and teams that must conduct appropriate and sound loan appraisal evaluations and which must also monitor the loans throughout the required processes right from extending a loan to a customer up to the completion of loan repayments so as to mitigate credit risks.
