other related services.

to limited opportunity sectors. Banks and financial institutions are investing in house
loan, hire purchase loan for safety purpose. Lack of good lending opportunities, banks is
facing problems of over liquidity. Nowadays, banks have increasing number of deposit in
fixed and saving accounts but have decreasing trend in lending behaviors. So, this has
caused major problems in commercial banks. Nowadays, due to competition among
banks, the interest rate charge for loan is in decreasing trend. Therefore, it is necessary
to analyze the financial performance of the bank. As the sample of commercial banks,
KUMARI bank limited have been selected.
