(Kampala international international: College of Economics and Management, 2004-08) Richard, Kaule Jason
My Study was based on financial institutions with reference to lending rates. The scope was mainly on small scale enterprises and the impact felt due to these rates. The method applied was both quantitative and qualitative in Owino Market and Kisenyi Flour Millers. The research was able to establish causes that lead to poor performance as high bank rates and lack of awareness of the Banking sector and its operations. It is therefore, recommended that banks harmonize their bank rates to attract high investment and conduct awareness seminars to build a strong foundation for small investments. In conclusion both banks and small scale investors are working at lower capacity than projected because of low borrowings and also small investments are suffering from liquidity problems because of the hardships in obtaining credit.

An Assessment of the Effects of Interest Rates on the Performance of Financial Institutions. A Case Study of Stanbic IPS Branch Kampala
(Kampala International University, College of Economics and Management, 2006-02) Oyasi, Joyce
Using bank data for 80 countries for 1988-95, the authors show that differences in interest margins and bank profitability reflect various determinants bank characteristics, macroeconomic conditions, explicit and implicit bank taxes, regulation of deposit insurance, general financial structure, and several underlying legal and institutional indicators. Controlling for differences in bank activity, leverage, and the macroeconomic environment, they find (among other things) that: I) Banks in countries with a more competitive banking sector--where banking assets constitute a larger share of GDP--have smaller margins and are less profitable. The bank concentration ratio also affects bank profitability; larger banks tend to have higher margins. 2) Well-capitalized banks have higher net interest margins and are more profitable. This is consistent with the fuct that banks with higher capital ratios have a lower cost of funding because of lower prospective bankruptcy costs. 3) Differences in a bank activity mix affect spread and profitability. Banks with relatively high non- interest -earning assets are less profitable. Also, banks that rely largely on deposits for their funding are less profitable, as deposits require more branching and other expenses. Similarly, variations in overhead and other operating costs are reflected in variations in bank interest margins, as banks pass their operating costs (including the corporate tax burden) onto their depositors and lenders. 4) In developing countries, foreign banks have greater margins and profits than domestic banks. In industrial countries, the opposite is true. 5) Macroeconomic factors also explain variation in interest margins. Inflation is associated with higher realized interest margins and greater profitability. Inflation brings higher costs--more transactions and generally more extensive branch networks--and also more income from bank float. Bank income increases more with inflation than bank costs do. 6) There is evidence that the corporate tax burden is fully passed on to bank customers in poor and rich countries alike. 7) Legal and institutional differences matter. Indicators of better contract enforcement, efficiency in the legal system, and lack of corruption are associated with lower realized interest margins and lower profitability.
