Abstract
This dissertation is about internal controls and liquidity levels. The objectives of the dissertation
were to examine the relationship between internal controls and liquidity levels in commercial
banks in Uganda, to examine the relationship between internal controls, monitoring and
accountability in commercial banks in Uganda, and to ascertain whether internal controls,
monitoring and accountability factors impact on liquidity levels in commercial banks in Uganda.
The study concludes that there is a strong relationship between internal controls and liquidity
levels and recommends Ugandan commercial to maintain and strengthen internal control in order
to increase their liquidity levels that enhance better operations in the financial market, to improve
their liquidity levels through increasing their current assets that can easily be converted into cash.
This level of assets should be above the liabilities in order to meet the creditors' demands when
there is need, to consider Inter-bank lending as a source of financing to boost their liquidity at
short notice and control the rate of loaning forms, and furthermore, the study recommends that
Ugandan commercial banks should consider transacting at a wide range of maturities. This
allows borrowers to obtain the lowest rate of interest appropriate to their risk characteristics.
