This thesis aims to evaluate the financial performance of commercial banks in Namibia from 2010 to 2015. It utilizes the CAMELS model to assess key performance indicators and analyze factors influencing bank performance. * Financial Performance Evaluation of Namibian Banks * Application of the CAMELS Model * Analysis of Key Financial Indicators (Capital Adequacy, Asset Growth, Management Capability, Profitability, Liquidity) * Impact of Internal and External Factors on Bank Performance * Recommendations for Improving Bank PerformanceZusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
Chapter One: Introduction: This chapter introduces the study, providing background information on commercial banks in Namibia and their regulatory environment. It clearly defines the research problem, outlining the purpose, objectives, and research questions guiding the study. The scope, significance, limitations, and structure of the research are also detailed, along with key terms used throughout the thesis. The chapter lays the groundwork for the subsequent chapters by establishing the context and methodology of the study.
Chapter Two: Literature Review: This chapter explores existing literature on bank performance, focusing on the CAMELS model as a framework for assessment. It examines the importance of bank performance, the factors that influence it (both positive and negative), and the consequences of poor performance. The review also considers the specifics of domestic, state-owned, and foreign banks operating within Namibia. This provides a theoretical basis for interpreting the empirical findings presented in later chapters. Different models used in other empirical studies are critically evaluated, providing a comparative context for the current research methodology.
Chapter Three: Research Methodology: This chapter details the research design, explaining the choice of methodology and its appropriateness for addressing the research questions. The population and sample of banks are described, and the sampling techniques employed are justified. Data collection methods are explained, along with the measures taken to ensure the reliability and validity of the data. A clear definition of the variables used in the study (Capital Adequacy, Asset Growth, Management Capability, Profitability, and Liquidity) is given, creating a transparent and repeatable methodology.
Chapter Four: Assessment of Banks' Performance in terms of Financial Indicators: This chapter presents the core findings of the research, analyzing the financial performance of Namibian commercial banks using the indicators described in Chapter 3. It examines each aspect—Capital Adequacy, Asset Growth, Management Capability, Profitability, and Liquidity—separately, providing detailed analysis of each indicator for the selected banks. This involves presenting and interpreting the results with reference to the relevant literature and theoretical frameworks established earlier. The chapter comprehensively assesses the financial health of the banks based on these indicators and provides a foundation for the concluding chapter.
