The article substantiates the issue of important aspects of financial and economic security of commercial banks. In order to maintain the financial and economic security of the bank, it is important to comply with a number of conditions. Such conditions include an adequate level of liquidity, securing loan repayments, increasing bank profitability and minimizing banking risks. Models and methods by which the level of financial and economic security of banks are evaluated are analyzed and systematized in the article. All available models are reduced to an economic security assessment, as the bank's work is based on financial transactions. Therefore, the method of ratios and indicators was used to assess the level of financial security of the bank. The study raised the problem of selecting the required number of indicators that most affect the financial and economic security of a commercial bank. Credit risk was chosen among a large number of external and internal factors, as they have a significant impact on creditworthiness and are set to limit the credit risk of the bank. The weakening of financial security is evidenced by a decrease in liquidity and an increase in accounts payable and receivables, non-compliance with credit risk indicators. Therefore, the article analyzes the financial security by internal factors of influence, namely, the credit risk standards H7, H8 and H9. Three banks were selected for analysis: Oschadbank, Alfa-Bank and UkrSibbank. Today, the level of financial and economic security of the bank is insufficient among Ukrainian banks. In order to form a high level of financial and economic security of the bank it is necessary to achieve effective management of all subsystems of the bank, to develop effective financial management of the bank, to carry out careful personnel selection, as well as to ensure effective risk management. Keywords: financial and economic security of a commercial bank, methods of assessing financial security, models of financial security assessment, credit risks.

PurposeThis paper aimed to investigate the determinants of loans and advances from commercial banks in the case of Ethiopian private commercial banks.Design/methodology/approachThe study randomly selected seven commercial banks to represent the population stratified on their asset, deposit and paid-up capital amounts. The study utilized an unbalanced panel data model as each bank started operation at a different period of time and considered the period 1995–2016 for secondary details.FindingsThe findings showed that the deposit size, credit risk, portfolio investment, average lending rate, real gross domestic product (GDP) and inflation rate had significant and optimistic effects on the lending and advancement of private commercial banks. On the contrary, liquidity ratio had significant and negative effects on private commercial bank loans and advances. Finally, the study forwarded a feasible recommendation for concerned organs to focus on deposit size, credit risk, portfolio investment, average lending rate, real GDP, inflation rate and liquidity ratio. The results of this study will help banking industry policymakers and planners understand how to minimize inflation and unemployment by improving development and sustainable economic growth.Originality/valueThe findings of this study can also affect the general attitudes of a society by increasing knowledge and improve the quality of life for the general public.

Abstract Internal determinants of bank profitability can be defined as those factors that are influenced by the bank’s management decisions and policy objectives. This paper is aimed to examine the internal factors that impact on commercial banks profitability in Indonesia. The factors reviewed in the model namely capital adequacy, credit risk (non-performing loan), liquidity (loans to deposit ratio), net interest margin and operating efficiency (operating expenses to operating income ratio). Using purposive sampling method, the analysis used thirty three commercial banks, with 168 observations for the period 2010 to 2015. Based on the Chow-test, the common effect model was preferred. The model is estimated using Ordinary Least Squares method. The results revealed that two hypotheses were not be accepted. There are no significant effects of capital adequacy and credit risk on profitability, but the model explains that there are significant effects of all explanatory variables toward commercial bank profitability. However, other important internal determinants of bank profitability still have not included in the model of this paper.

This study analysed the relationship between credit risk and bank financial performance of selected commercial banks in Ghana for the period 2010 - 2014, using the banks respective financial statements. The study employed the quantitative research approach. The sample was Ghana Commercial Bank Limited, Zenith Bank Limited, UT Bank and Ecobank Plc. These four banks were selected using stratified random sampling technique. The data were primarily secondary and quantitative in nature. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. When the banks were compared, Ghana Commercial Bank Limited was found to be more liquid than Zenith Bank Limited. That of Zenith bank was also higher than UT bank and Ecobank Plc .However, profitability indicators showed that Zenith Bank Limited and Ecobank Plc utilised its assets better than Ghana Commercial Bank Limited and UT bank resulting in the two banks higher scores over the period. The findings show further that Ghana Commercial Bank Limited showed higher ratios for investment in the future while Zenith Bank Limited showed higher ratios of higher dividend immediately. However, Zenith Bank Limited capital adequacy level was far higher than the legal requirement of Banking sector while its counterparts fell slightly below it in terms of average. Based on the main findings and conclusions, it is recommended that Ghana Commercial Bank Limited should find a means of reducing its expenditure, introducing prudent assets management, should be cautious when assisting government in time of economic difficulty, and operate as an independent entity.

Banks are financial institutions that collect and distribute funds in the forms of deposits such as savings, deposits, current accounts, etc. from and for people who need funds for various needs, such as for consumption, working capital or business capital, housing and investment. In addition, banks must help the community to improve their living standards by distributing funds or giving credit to people who need funds. This is in accordance with the function of the bank itself, namely the bank as the distributor of funds. The purpose of this research is to examine and obtain evidence about factors that influence loan distribution at a bank. Internal factors that influence loan distribution are Third Party Funds, Non-Performing Loans, and Profitability. Efforts to increase credit at banks require optimal efforts to raise third-party funds, good credit management, and capital strengthening. This type of research is quantitative research with purposive sampling technique. The population used in this study is commercial banks from 2013 to 2017. The data come from commercial bank financial statements. As the benefit of this research the government can use it as a mapping material for distributing loan to commercial banks; the bank management can take it into consideration in making commercial bank lending policies. The results of the research show that profitability can mediate the relationship between third party funds and non-performing loans on loan distribution. Third party funds have a significant positive effect on loan distribution. Non-Performing Loans have a significant negative effect on loan distribution. Keywords: LOAN DISTRIBUTION, THIRD PARTY FUNDS, NON-PERFORMING LOANS, AND PROFITABILITY

Despite the various control measures put in place especially the CBK’s prudential laws to ensure that the performance of commercial banks in Kenya is ensured, most commercial banks have been collapsing in the recent past. It is in this light that the current study sought to ascertain the impact of bank liquidity, capital adequacy, asset quality and earnings on the firm value of listed Commercial banks in Kenya. Descriptive research design was employed on a population sample of eleven publicly listed retail banks. Secondary data was collected from CBK and other public financial reports over the 12-year period from 2009 to 2020. The collected data was analysed using1a multivariate panel regression1model to generate the relevant regression tests. The1study established that the capital adequacy has a marginal positive impact on the firm value while earning ability was found to have a statically insignificant positive effect on firm value among Kenyan commercial bank. The study findings indicated that liquidity was insignificantly and negatively correlated with firm value as asset quality had insignificant positive effect on firm value among Kenyan commercial bank. The study recommends that, managers of listed banks should embrace utilization of internally generated equity capital to ultimately promotes credit risk assessments as they maintain optimal levels of liquidity to maximize firm value and maintain high quality of assets as they sustained levels of earnings that boost output. This paper explained a credit risk rating concept that had not been examined in Kenya before.

Current global trends in financial management and in banking in particular are demonstrating a gradual shift in focus from remote external financial control over bank’s operations to more internal risk-oriented financial control. Against this background, there is a fundamental change in organization of financial control in commercial banks, associated with the implementation of international norms and standards as well as Russian Federation legislation compliance with these norms and standards. In the context of rapid development and changes of nearly all technologies, the impacts from real and potential threats to internal and external environments, internal financial banking control is becoming increasingly important in ensuring growth of banks’ financial performance. Thus, given the importance of the very institution of financial control in the banking sector for financial and economic stability of any state, the presence of problematic issues in this area necessitates further studies of the characteristics of financial control in a commercial bank stemming from the already accumulated Russian and foreign experience.
