This study is an assessment of the effect of credit management on loan portfolio performance at Pride Microfinance Ltd, Uganda. Its main emphasis is to examine the effect of credit management policies, credit procedures and credit collection methods on loan portfolio performance.

The examination utilized a clear study plan on 309 respondents who were chosen from an investigation populace of 1170 respondents. Interviews and closed-ended questionnaires were used to collect both qualitative and quantitative data. The findings showed that management policies, procedures as well as collection methods were positively correlated with loan portfolio performance. The majority of the variations in loan portfolio performance could be explained by variations in credit management policies, credit management procedures and credit collection methods for their outstanding balances while keeping other factors constant.

The investigation demonstrated that credit management policies have a beneficial outcome on loan portfolio performance at Pride Microfinance Ltd. If the strategies are actualized, the foundation can almost certainly recoup the loans dispensed prompting a quality loan portfolio. This paper argues that credit collection methods significantly affect loan portfolio performance and for this reason emphasis needs to be placed on appropriate loan repayment frequency for better portfolio management.
