Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the factors affecting Non-Performing Loans of Commercial Bank of Ethiopia during the period from 2002 to 2015. The variables were chosen based on findings from the previous literatures. A mixed research approach and explanatory design were adopted in carrying out this research. Secondary time series data were collected from audited annual reports and performance reports of the bank; and the required ratios were calculated. In addition, 12 credit experts from the concerned departments and functional units responsible for lending matters in the bank were interviewed. Multiple linear regression equation was used to estimate the model using SPSS version 20 software. The results obtained from regression output indicated that among the studied variables, loan to deposit ratio; financial performance measured in terms of return on equity; and capital adequacy were found to be statistically significant determinant of NPLs. On the other hand, loan growth, cost efficiency and bank size were statistically insignificant in affecting NPL. The findings from the interview result indicates that, variables such as poor credit risk assessment, focusing on collateral based lending, poor loan monitoring and follow-up, poor banker's skill in dealing with lending matters, undiversified loan products, short loan life and lack of credit advisory practices were also the bank specific factors that affect NPLs of CBE. The study suggests that focusing on these NPL indicators could further reduce the probability of default while extending credit in the future. Further studies were recommended by including macroeconomic and other bank specific variables; and by increasing the sampled periods.

Purposive sampling technique was employed in selecting officials from the banks whose duties centered on Credit Risk Management. Random sampling technique also helped the researcher in selecting the sample size for the customers of the banks. Findings made uncovered the fact that poor sales and exchange rate losses, product substitutes due to trade liberalization and inability to enter into the foreign market and account for a chuck of the loan default cases experienced by the banks. It is recommended, among others, that the Government’s information on Venture Capital Trust fund should be made more accessible to the SMEs sectors through official sponsored workshops whilst the capacity and logistics of the Eximguaranty Limited are strengthened to alleviate the credit requirement ‘headaches’ of SMEs. Conclusions drawn centered on the fact that some banks minimize risk factors in credit management by entering into some covenants with borrowers’ under which certain figures and ratios are periodically sent to the banks electronically. Most banks also dispatch their officials to monitor and evaluate the loan disbursement schedules agreed with the customer to minimize bad debt associated with SMEs.

The profitability in terms of return on assets and return on equity are selected as dependent variables. Capital adequacy ratio, non-performing loan ratio, cost per loan assets, cash reserve ratio, assets growth ratio and leverage ratio are taken as independent variables.

The regression models are estimated to test the significance and importance of credit risk management on profitability in Nepalese commercial banks.The result shows that capital adequacy ratio, cost per loan assets and assets growth ratio are positively related with return on assets and return on equity. It indicates that higher the capital adequacy ratio, higher would be the return on assets and return on equity. Similarly, increase in cost per loan assets leads to an increase in return on assets and return on equity. Likewise, higher the assets growth ratio, higher would be the return on assets and return on equity. The results also shows that non-performing loan ratio, cash reserve ratio and leverage ratio are negatively related with return on assets and return on equity which reveals that increase in non-performing loan ratio leads to decrease in return on assets and return on equity. Similarly, higher the cash reserve ratio, lower would be the return on assets and return on equity. Likewise, increase in leverage ratio leads to a decrease in return on assets and return on equity. The beta coefficient is positive for capital adequacy ratio, cost per loan assets and assets growth ratio and bank performance whereas the beta coefficient is negative for non-performing loan ratio, cash reserve ratio and leverage ratio and bank performance. The beta coefficient is significant for capital adequacy ratio, non-performing loan ratio, assets growth ratio and leverage ratio at 5 percent level of significance.
