Finance is the process of creating, moving and using money, enabling the flow of
money through a company in much the same way it facilitates global money flow.
Money is created by the sales force when they sell the goods or services the company
produces; it then flows into production where it is spent to manufacture more products
to sell. The strategic use of financial instruments, such as loans and investments, is
key to the success of every business. It can also be said that finance is the elixir that
assists in the formation of new businesses, and allows businesses to take advantage of
opportunities to grow, employ local workers and in turn support other businesses and
local, state and federal government through the remittance of income taxes. Financial
trends also define the state of the economy on a global level, so central banks can plan
appropriate monetary policies.
Banks represent a major component of the country's financial system and play a key
role in enhancing the overall economic growth of the country (Allen & Carletti, 2008)
The banking industry plays an essential role in the economy in terms of resource
mobilization and allocation and, is by far, the most important part of the financial
system in developing economies, accounting for the bulk of the financial transactions
and assets.
Banking has become an important feature, which renders service to the people in
financial matters, and its magnitude of action is extending day by day. It is a major
financial institutional system in Nepal, which accounted for more than 70% (Poudel,
2005) of the total assets of all the financial institutions. A profitable and sound
banking sector is at a better point to endure adverse upsets and adds performance in
the financial system (Athanasoglou et al., 2008). Banking system is also important
because any instability in it, has the possibility to lead to a financial instability and
economic crisis. Therefore, a well-functioning banking system is regarded as a
foundation of a market economy. That is why the policymakers are always there
trying hard to ensure that banking system is stable besides ensuring that it is
competitive and efficient (Kocabay, 2009).

A joint venture (JV) is a business arrangement in which two or more parties agree to
pool their resources for the purpose of accomplishing a specific task. This task can be
a new project or any other business activity. In a joint venture (JV), each of the
participants is responsible for profits, losses, and costs associated with it. However,
the venture is its own entity, separate from the participants' other business interests.

Performance evaluation is the important approach for enterprises to give incentive and
restraint to their operators and it is an important channel for enterprise stakeholders to
get the performance information (Sun, 2011). The performance evaluation of a joint
venture banks includes how well the bank can use its assets, shareholders’ equities
and liabilities, revenues and expenses. The performance evaluation of banks is
important for all parties including depositors, investors, bank managers and
regulators. The evaluation of a firm’s performance usually employs the financial ratio
method, because it provides a simple description about the firm’s financial
performance in comparison with previous periods and helps to improve its
performance of management (Lin et al., 2005). Moreover, the ratio analysis assists in
determining the financial position of the bank compared to other banks.
Financial performances of the bank can be evaluated under various models. However
CAMEL model is one of the popular and reliable method being adopted nowadays by
many countries. It was developed in USA to describe the bank’s overall condition. It
is applied to approximate 8000 institutions i.e. covering every bank and credit union
in USA and now being implemented in other parts of the world by various banking
supervisory regulators. CAMEL comprises five parameters namely capital adequacy
(C), Assets (A), management (M), Earnings (E) and Liquidity (L). There are more
approximately seventeen ratios that can be assessed to evaluate the bank’s
performance under this framework. Out of those ratios return on assets (ROA), return
on equity (ROE), capital adequacy ratio (CAR) , nonperforming loan ratio (NPL),
interest expense to total loans (IETTL), net interest margin (NIM), credit to deposit
ratio (CDR), will be evaluated to analyze the financial data of Nepalese joint venture
banks for the period 2014 to 2018. These ratios would help to indicate the condition
of capital, assets quality, management, earnings and liquidity position of different
joint venture banks.
For the economic growth and development of any economy, an efficient banking
system is distinguished as a basic requirement. Banks contribute in uplifting the

Although joint venture banks have managed to perform better than other local
commercial banks within the short period of time, they have been facing a neck
competition against one another. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the financial
5
performances of joint venture banks time to time. Thus, this study will make an
attempt to analyze the financial performances of joint venture banks and make a
comparative analysis among themselves.
Financial soundness of the bank means the ability of the bank to meet its long term
fixed expenses and acquiring its long term expansion and growth plans. Banking
system should be sound and healthy as its financial state has great impact on the
development of whole country’s economy. Every business firm performs economic
activities. These activities affect the economic condition of state and financial
condition of the firm. So while forming any economic policy of the state these things
should be kept under consideration. A sound financial performance is important for
the growth of business enterprises and financial institution. It is necessary that
financial management of an institution must be appropriate to yield a fair rate of
return on capital employed in them. Any mistake made in financial management
adversely affects the financial condition of an institution. In this regard it is required
to measure and analyze the financial performance of the commercial banks from time
to time.
Sound financial health of a bank is the guarantee not only to its depositors but is
equally significant for the shareholders, employees and whole economy as well
(Aspal & Malhotra, 2013). A sound banking system proves to be one of the pillars of
economic, social and industrial growth of a country. The financial performances of
6
any firms or business can be improved when they possess a virtue of competition
among themselves.
At this situation, therefore, the commercial banks should be more competitive and
should be more focused on becoming financially strong and healthy. And they have to
shape their plans and strategies accordingly.
Thus, the present study tries to evaluate the financial soundness of Nepalese joint
venture banks. This study will also be an important support to the management owner
clients, steak holders and policy makers and other interested groups in analyzing the
bank's economic strength and performance efficiency. It will be helpful to the policy
makers while formulating the policy regarding these joint venture banks and people
can understand how they are benefitted by such banks. Besides policy makers this
study is also expected to be a useful feedback to the government and central bank
(NRB) to formulate the appropriate strategies for improvement in the performance of
joint venture banks. Moreover, this study can also be used as reference point by the
international organizations.
1. The study is based on the secondary data and the limitation of using
secondary data may affect the results.
2. The secondary data will be taken from the annual reports of the selected
banks. It may be possible that the data shown in the annual reports may be
window dressed which does not show the actual position of the banks.
3. A whole study is based on the data of five years period i.e. from fiscal year
20014 to 2018 and hence the conclusion drawn confines only to the above
period.
4. The evaluation will be done under few ratios only under CAMEL model
instead of using all the ratios.

Literature review
and bank balance to deposit than that of EBL. Likewise, the liquidity position of EBL
in terms
of cash and bank balance to current and saving deposit ratio is found higher than HBL
(i.e. 21.90% > 10.03% in an average). This analysis shows that EBL has more cash
ideal than HBL. In the same way, fixed deposit to total deposit ratio of EBL is better
than that of HBL. The ratio of EBL is higher. So, the higher ratio of fixed deposit to
total deposit ratio indicates the strong liquidity position.
In terms of Loan and advances to fixed deposit ratio of HBL is higher than that of
EBL
(i.e. 436.98% > 346.80% in an average) which means that HBL is utilizing its
collected resources in the form of fixed deposits much more efficiently, which
definitely lead to the increase income and thus, making an increment profit for the
organization. The turnover position in term of loan and advances to saving deposit
ratio, EBL is greater than HBL within the study period of 5 years. So, it is concluded
that EBL has better turnover than HBL.
Profitability in terms of net profit to total assets ratio, net profit to total deposit ratio,
return to net worth (shareholders equity), return on net worth ratio and net profit
margin ratio, EBL average ratio is always greater than that of HBL. Thus, it can be
concluded that EBL is getting good return from its investment.
Mr. Regmi’s (2007) thesis entitled "A comparative study of the financial performance
of HBL and NBBL" , suggests that NBBL should increase its current assets because
the bank is not maintaining adequate liquidity position in comparison with HBL.
It seemed like HBL should improve the efficiency in utilizing the deposits in loan and
advance for generating the profit whereas NBBL should try to maintain present
position on this regards. Profitability position of HBL is comparatively better than the
same of NBBL. So, NBBL is recommended to utilize its resources more efficiently
for generating more profit margins. NBBL is suggested to increase its dividend
payout ratio.

Methodology
Population and sample: There are seven joint venture banks currently operating in
Nepal. So all these seven banks will be considered as the population for the study.
Sources of data: Since this is a retrospective study, secondary data will be used as the
main sources of data. The data will be mainly the annual audited financial statements
and balance sheets of joint venture banks published by the respective banks.
Data collection and processing procedure: All the data will be collected from the
official websites of the respective banks. And also various related books, booklets,
magazine, journals, newspaper and thesis made in this field will be referred for
obtaining necessary information. Besides necessary suggestions will be taken from
various experts both inside and outside the bank whenever required. Data collected
from the annual reports of the selected banks will be tabulated through the computer
spreadsheets and only CAMEL Model will be used to examine the financial strength
of the selected banks with regard to capital adequacy, asset quality, management
efficiency, earning ability and liquidity.
Data analysis tools and techniques: There are 17 ratios under CAMEL framework.
But only few ratios will be selected in our study for analyzing the financial
performances of the selected banks. Different ratios including return on assets (ROA),
return on equity (ROE), capital adequacy ratio (CAR), nonperforming loan ratio
(NPL), interest expense to total loans (IETTL), net interest margin (NIM), credit to
deposit ratio (CDR) will be evaluated to analyze the financial data of selected joint
venture banks for the period of 2014 to 2018. The appropriate statistical tool will be
used to compare and analyze various parameters
