Purpose of the study: The purpose of the study was to critically analyze the effectiveness of banks’ performances and to examine the associations amongst the asset management, banks’ size, operational efficiency, and their impact on the bank’s performance. Design/Methodology/Approach: The secondary data was obtained from the annual reports of five selected commercial banks of Oman listed in the Muscat Securities Market (MSM) for the period 2013 to 2019. The collected data was analyzed through financial ratios using excel and SPSS and was used to evaluate the banks’ performance. Findings: The study revealed that the Operational Efficiency (OE) of the selected commercial banks had an impact on the Return on Assets (ROA); advances of the selected commercial banks had an impact on the interest income whereas operational efficiency of the selected commercial banks had NO impact on the Interest Income. The study further confirmed that Bank Muscat proved to be the bank that performed well over the years 2013 to 2019. Research Implications: The study proved that the banks’ financial performances can be measured through the assets size, asset management, and equity management using ratio analysis which can be a good measure to adjudge the financial performances of the banks. Social Implications: The study helps the stakeholders of the banks to understand the factors and the banking activities that might help to enhance the financial performances of the banks and to take necessary action and suitable decisions accordingly. Originality/value: The study was restricted to five selected commercial banks of Oman and the study had relied mostly on quantitative techniques involving ratio analyses. The study can be extended to all the commercial banks in Oman including the most determining factor viz. customer satisfaction.

This study used empirical facts and assessed the trade-off of profitability versus liquidity (and vice versa) for five commercial banks in Nigeria. Multivariate research design, regression analysis, Ordinary Least Square, and correlation coefficient approaches were used to apply quantitative methodologies to data collected. Amongst the population of twenty-two banks, Zenith, First, United Bank for Africa, Guaranteed Trust and Union Banks were chosen as case studies for this study using a purposive sample approach. Secondary data was gathered from their five-year annual reports, which were published between 2015 and 2019. The correlation coefficient was employed to test the hypothesis, which revealed that there was a statistically perfect correlation (positive and negative) between LA (loans), BA (bank advances), and MDI (marketable debt instruments) against PAT (profit after tax) and ROA (return on assets). Furthermore, since banks strive to maintain their current assets, the findings revealed that efficient liquidity management is a key determinant that may boost or impair a bank’s profitability. To avoid future insolvency and bankruptcy, this study recommends that these banks use contemporary and effective liquidity management strategies amid the current post-pandemic environment. In addition, while focusing on the same topic of research, interested scholars should make significant use of a broader data coverage area.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of musyarakah financing on profitability in Sharia Commercial Banks in Indonesia for the 2015-2017 period and to find out how much influence musyarakah financing had on profitability in sharia commercial banks for the period 2015-2017. The limitation of the problem of this research is on the profitability of financial ratios ROA (Return On Assets) and ROE (Return On Equity). To disclose these issues in depth and thoroughly, researchers used a quantitative approach with secondary data collection techniques in the form of financial statements of each sharia bank for three consecutive years and provided quarterly financial reports, obtained by 5 Islamic banks to obtain 60 data. The data analysis technique used is simple linear regression using the SPSS version 16. Then the data is described, analyzed and discussed to answer the problems raised. From the results of the study it was found that musyarakah financing had a significant effect on ROA at alpha 5%. This is evidenced by the significance value (Sig.) (0.002) <(α) 0.05. While musyarakah financing has no significant effect on ROE at alpha 5%. This is evidenced by the significance value (Sig.) (0.669)> (α) 0.05.

This paper examines the profitability and consistency of the second leading export oriented industry of Bangladesh. The secondary data of the five leading companies namely, Fu-Wang, Monno, Shinepukur, Standard and RAK Ceramics are collected from the annual reports of 2006-2012 from their websites. The collected data are processed and analyzed by SPSS 19 to make interpretations by ANOVA outputs. Different financial tools like Gross profit margin, Operating profit margin, Net profit margin, Return on assets, Return on equity are calculated along with the liquidity ratios and turnover ratios to find out the causes of unexpected results, if any. The researchers find that two of the five companies (Standard and Monno) are performing very poorly, one (Fu-Wang) is performing moderate level and other two (RAK and Shinepukur) are performing comparatively better. The asset and sales management of the poor performers are to be improved immediately, the liquidity position of all the companies is to be improved and the capital structure of Shinepukur is to be reconstructed.Journal of Business and Technology (Dhaka) Vol.9(2) 2014; 1-13

This study examines the determinants of capital structure in Nepalese Commercial Banks. The study is based on secondary data of 16 commercial banks with 112 observations for the period 2011/12 to 2017/18. The total debt to total assets and total debt to total equity were selected as dependent variables while return on assets, bank size, assets tangibility, assets growth and liquidity are the independent variables. The data were collected from annual reports of concerned sample bank. The Pearson's correlation coefficients and regression models are estimated to test the significance and impact of bank specific factors on the capital structure of Nepalese commercial banks. The result shows that banks size and assets tangibility are positively correlated with total debt to total assets whereas return on assets, assets growth and liquidity are negatively correlated with total debt to total assets. Likewise return on assets, bank size, assets tangibility, assets growth and liquidity are negatively correlated with total debt to total equity. It indicates that higher assets growth, return on assets and liquidity lower would be the total debt to total assets and total debt to total equity. Likewise higher the bank size and assets tangibility higher would be the total debt to total assets. This study concludes that return on assets, bank size and assets tangibility are the most influencing factors and assets growth and liquidity are the least influencing factor affecting the capital structure of Nepalese commercial banks.

This work examined the effect of Treasury Single Account (TSA) implementation on the financial performance of commercial banks in Nigeria. The study employed expo-facto survey research design and seven big commercial banks in Nigeria. First Bank of Nigeria, Zenith Bank, Access Bank, UBA, Union Bank, Diamond Bank and Fidelity Bank were judgmentally sampled for this study. Secondary data were gathered through CBN statistical bulletin from 2013 to 2017 (that is two years before and two years after implementation of TSA). Customers deposit was used as proxy for independent variable (Treasury Single Account), while profit after tax, return on equity and return on assets are proxies for dependent variable (financial performance). The data collected were analyzed using comparable mean, while research hypotheses were tested using Simple regression analysis. The findings obtained from the statistical testing of the hypotheses of this study show that customers’ deposit has a significant effect on profit after tax, return on assets and return on equity of commercial banks in Nigeria. The study recommends that Government should create enabling grounds for commercial banks to operate and be profitable to enable investors to have confidence on the economy because banks drive every economy. Commercial banks should increase their customer deposit by engaging in aggressive marketing strategy that will attract private individuals and businesses in order to increase the volume of their liquidity. Merger and acquisition should be encouraged in order to increase the capital base of banks and to make them strong and viable. Also, banks should avoid over-reliance on government deposits and focus more on other banking activities as well as investments that would help in enhancing their performance.

The study examined the impact of liquidity management on the financial performance of commercial banks in Botswana. The study used Return on Assets and Return on Equity to measure financial performance. Cash and cash equivalents to total assets ratio, Cash to deposits ratio, Loans to deposits ratio, Loans to total assets ratio, Liquid assets to total assets ratio, and Liquid assets to deposits ratio were used as proxies for liquidity management. The research population was all the 9 commercial banks in Botswana and the study covered a period of 9 years from 2011 to 2019. This descriptive study sourced monthly secondary data from Bank of Botswana Financial Statistics database. Descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analyses were applied to analyse the data. The results from regression analysis show statistically significant positive relationships for Loans to total assets ratio and Liquid assets to total assets ratio with return on assets and return on equity. Loans to deposits ratio and Liquid assets to deposits ratio had statistically significant negative relationships with return on assets and return on equity. Cash and cash equivalents to total assets ratio had statistically insignificant positive relationship with return on assets and return on equity whilst cash to deposits ratio had statistically insignificant negative relationship with return on assets and return on equity. Findings suggest that the commercial banks should try to optimize liquidity variables to boost bank performance. The policy makers also, through the Central Bank, should come up with initiatives such as prescribing minimum liquidity requirements that will help banks to stay profitable.
