This study mainly aimed to examine the effect of internal risks on the financial performance of the Jordanian commercial banks. The study sample comprised the entire commercial banks that are included in the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) spanning the period from 2009 to 2019. The study formulated four hypotheses, which are related to the effects of liquidity risk and leverage risk on the bank’s performance, proxied by ROA and ROE. Based on the results, liquidity risk did not have a significant effect on both ROA and ROE, while leverage risk did not have a significant effect on ROA, but it did on ROE. It can thus be concluded that the use of financial leverage should be taken into consideration because of its negative influence on the banks’ financial performance, specifically on the shareholders’ returns. It is recommended that future studies examine the effect of additional risk types, like credit risk and operational risk on the performance of banks.

This study aimed to determine the impact of liquidity risk on financial performance of Jordanian banks, where liquidity risk was measured by (Liquidity ratio, net working capital, cash and investment ratio to total deposits), and financial performance was also measured through the index (return on assets) and the modifying variable (bank size) measured through the natural logarithm of total assets was also added. To achieve the objectives of the study, the analytical quantitative approach was adopted. The study community consisted of all 13 commercial banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange. All banks in the study community were selected as a study sample using the comprehensive survey method, and the statistical analysis program (SPSS) was used to test the study hypotheses. Based on the results of the statistical analysis, it was found that there was an impact of liquidity risk on financial performance measured by return on assets in Jordanian commercial banks listed on Amman Stock Exchange, and there was an impact for each of (current liquidity ratio, net working capital, cash and investment ratio to total deposits) on financial performance measured by return on assets in Jordanian commercial banks listed on Amman Stock Exchange. It was also found that the size of the bank contributes to modifying the effect of liquidity risk on financial performance measured by return on assets in Jordanian commercial banks listed on Amman Stock Exchange. The study concluded a set of recommendations, the most important of which are: commercial bank administrations should increase interest in exploiting their liquidity within acceptable risk limits to reach optimal ratios for financial performance by balancing the returns to be achieved with the potential risks of such expenses in a way that ensures the positive impact of liquidity risk on the financial performance of those banks.

This study aims to investigate the impact of liquidity, credit, and financial leverage risks on the financial performance of Islam banks in Sudan during the period of 2008 - 2018. Panel dataset of 143 observations from (13) banks has been used in this study. Two models of ROA and NPM have been constructed using robust random effects estimates for testing the study hypotheses. The independent variables consist of liquidity and credit risks plus the financial Leverage ratio. Credit risk that measured by nonperformance of loan (financing) and provision of loan (financing) loss ratios; while the liquidity risk measured by cash to deposits ratio, liquid assets to total assets ratio and total loan (financing) to total deposits ratio. The financial performance of Islamic banks in Sudan measured by the ratios of return on assets and net profit margin. The results reveal that the credit risk and financial leverage have significant and negative impact on the financial performance of Islamic banks in Sudan, whereas the liquidity risk generally found to be insignificant. Despite that, the liquidity risk in term of liquid assets to total assets ratio provides a significant and positive influence on the financial performance of Sudanese banks. Finally, the importance of this study is that it touches the most significant types of risks that Sudanese Islamic banks face during their operational cycles.

Due to the great importance of the financing structure of banks, the impact of capital structure on the financial performance of banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange has been examined. To achieve the objectives of this study, we have followed the experimental approach. The study relied on financial variables. The Capital Structure has been measured by the ratios of total debt to total assets and total debt to total equity. Both ratios are independent variables. The dependent variable in this study is the financial performance of banks represented by the ratio of return on assets, the ratio of return on equity, the ratio of return on investment, and the ratio of return on share. The study community and sample consisted of twelve commercial banks listed on Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) during the period (2007-2017). Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software was used in testing of research hypotheses. The most important results are that the capital structure has an impact on return on assets (ROA), while it has no impact on return on equity (ROE), return on investment (ROI) and earnings per share (EPS) in Jordanian commercial banks.

The study examined “risk management and financial performance of banks in Nigeria” with focus on commercial banks. The broad objective of the study was to ascertain the effect of risk asset management on the optimal financial performance of commercial banks in Nigeria. The study is a longitudinal survey, so the ex-post facto research design was applied. Research data were analysed using generalized method of moments (GMM) and vector Error Correction Model, after testing and adjusting the data for stationarity and Cointegration.The research findings were: Banks’ profitability is significantly influenced in the short run by liquidity risk and in the long-run by credit risk, capital adequacy risk, leverage risk and liquidity risk. Furthermore, profitability measured by ROaA was found to be positively related to liquidity risk but negatively related credit risk. Arising from the findings, there is the need for effective risk management, especially credit, capital adequacy, leverage and liquidity risks, to enhance the profitability of banks. By helping to enhance the going concern of banks, risk management will help to reduce retrenchment and unemployment and hence help to forestall the attendant social vices.

The main objective of this study is to find out how, the two different types of risks,i.e. Liquidity Risk & Credit Risk,affect the overall profitability/financial performance of commercial banks in Pakistan. We used methods that were applicable on a panel data for long run and short run time specifications. Thirty-three scheduled banks listed with the SBP,as of December 2018 have been used for the purpose of the data analysis. The panel data that is used for this study stretches across a period of 10 years,with 33 cross sections. The findings of this current study revealed that the financial performance of the banks present in Pakistan is negatively,and significantly influenced by the credit risk. In addition to this, it was revealed that the lesser the non-performing loans, the lower the risk factor that is experienced. The financial risk comprising of credit risk and liquidity risk tends to have a significantly robust impact on the overall enactment of the commercial banks in Pakistan. This study will prove beneficial for the top management of the financial institutions developing economies, as it will enhance their existing knowledge regarding the impact of financial risk, which will eventually infiltrate into the intensity and quality of the financial performance of the banks. This will also enable banks, and other financial institutions to involve all the relevant stakeholders,in order to determine how they can minimize the effects of the financial risk,so as to maximize the overall returns.

The study aims to analyse and rank the financial performance of Jordanian commercial banks using the elements of the CAMELS model. The study relies on a sample of 12 Jordanian commercial banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange during the period 2016–2020. The study used variables included in the CAMELS model, namely: capital adequacy, asset quality, management efficiency, profitability, liquidity, and sensitivity to market risks. The research results indicate that Jordanian commercial banks enjoy high Capital Adequacy Ratios that exceed the minimum required by the Central Bank of Jordan and the Basel Committee. Jordanian banks have a strong sensitivity to market risks; therefore, they can control market risks and face any risk to which they may be exposed as well as the variety of the securities invested in these banks. Jordanian commercial banks are also characterized by a good earning ability. On the other hand, Jordanian commercial banks have a weak asset quality, and they also maintain weak and insufficient liquidity ratios to meet any unforeseen needs. These banks also show weak management efficacy, and this rating reflects weak management in expense controls.
