The data was presented using tables and graphs.Results: Based on the findings the study concluded that asset quality influenced the financial performance of savings and credit societies in Kenya. This can be explained by the regression results which showed that the influence was positive and also showed the magnitude by which asset quality influenced the financial performance of savings and credit societies. The univariate regression results showed that asset quality influenced the financial performance of savings and credit societies by 5.827units.Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study recommended that management need to be cautious in setting up a credit policy that will not negatively affects profitability and also they need to know how credit policy affects the operation of their banks to ensure judicious utilization of deposits and maximization of profit. The study also recommended for credit information sharing between SACCO's. This will play a significant role in determining performance of deposit taking SACCO’s. Further, the study recommended that SACCO’s opt for equity financing instead of debt financing to improve on its leverage. SACCO’s should also avoid excessive lending, maintain high credit standards and limit lending to un-hedged borrowers.

The study is to examine the financial performance of banks listed in MSM, Omanthrough CAMEL model approach. The variables are computedusing financial ratios and compare them with established standards related to the Camel's standard to find out how important it is to implement a standard in the bank and ANOVA is calculated to determine whether results are meaningful. In other words, they help to determine whether you should reject the null hypothesis or accept the alternative hypothesis.The present research study uses descriptive analysis to achieve objectives of the study.The study's aim is to find out how CAMEL components affect the financial performance of MSM-listed banks. The findings support the impact of the CAMEL parameters on commercial bank results. Capital adequacy, asset quality, management efficiency, and liquidity are considered independent variables in the CAMEL model, whereas financial output is considered a dependent variable. All banks should follow and implanting perfect strategy in how used efficiency and effectively asset to generate profit. Moreover, monitoring credit risk of banks and control it.


Today, the lending sector is considered as the fastest rising sectors, also plenty of funds is been devoted in banks. Thus it involves so much of complexity and proper evaluation of its performance is needed. There are various models available for assessing the routine act of the bank.

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.

A robust financial structure is considered essential for the swift development and growth and of an economic system. The banking structure is a vital constituent of the financial structure of a nation. The banking system performance assessment is an influential determinant and indicator of the economy's financial strength. Financial Innovation approaches resulting from new technology helps in better estimation of Financial Performances of the banking sector. Banks need to be more closely and accurately watched as they play the role of facilitator of monetary policy of the economy. The prime objective is to examine the financial performance of Saudi Arabia's banking sector through Innovative approaches. With this view, a case study of XYZ Bank has been undertaken. For financial performance evaluation, the CAMEL model has been applied as one of the innovative approaches. This tool is a widely accepted criterion in the field of financial performance evaluation of the banking sector. CAMEL is a ratio-supported mechanism that evaluates bank performance through capital adequacy, quality of assets, management efficiency, quality of earnings, and liquidity. For analyzing the CAMEL model, the various ratios of the model in terms of proxy ratios are given below: For the analysis, nine-year data from 2009 to 2018 has been analyzed using a multiple linear regression model using the SPSS package. The study observed that this innovative approach, i.e., CAMEL specific factors, has mixed influence on the financial performance of XYZ Bank. Capital adequacy and asset quality have a positive effect on bank performance. Moreover, the study also highlights that management efficiency insignificantly affects the profitability of the bank. Moreover, earning quality also signifies a negative influence on profitability. The correlation between asset quality and ROA is negative. It is inferred that those banks with more operating profits and better liquidity management could report high profits. The study further advocates that XYZ Bank must improve its earning quality and management efficiency to come at the same level with the banks having good financial performance and should use innovative methods to estimate financial performance from time to time.

Analysis of financial performance to detect financial health of finance companies, development banks and commercial banks as a whole is a less explored research in Nepalese context. This paper, therefore, attempts to examine the financial performance and factors influencing financial performance of Nepalese financial depositary institutions in the framework of CAMEL. This study is based on descriptive cum casual research design. This study is based on secondary data which was extracted from various publications published by Nepal Rastra Bank such as banking and financial statistics, financial stability report and bank supervision report. All commercial banks, development banks, and finance companies are taken as population of the study. The study deals with financial performance analysis of entire population covering five years from 2014/15 to 2018/19. The variables such as capital adequacy, assets quality, management efficiency, earnings and liquidity are used to analyze financial performance. Descriptive as well as pooled regression analysis was used to assess the relationship among the variables. Descriptive analysis shows that financial institutions in each category meet NRB standard regarding capital adequacy. On the basis of capital adequacy and earnings, finance companies stand at first, on the basis of assets quality, development banks stand at first and on the basis of management efficiency, commercial banks stand at first. Finance companies store high liquidity as compared to other class financial institutions. The regression analysis shows that return on assets, ROA has significant positive relationship with capital adequacy and ROE but ROA has significant negative relationship with assets quality. However, return on equity, ROE has significant positive relationship with assets quality and ROA but ROE has significant negative relationship with capital adequacy. Capital adequacy and assets quality play major role to maximize ROA and ROE of financial institutions.
