LENDING RATE AND LOAN PORTFOLIO OF SELECTED AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT BANKS IN GHANA
Original language description
The objective of this study was to examine the effects of lending interest rates on the loan portfolio of Agriculture Development Banks in Ghana. This study was largely quantitative research. The study population was drawn from Agriculture Development Banks currently listed on the Ghana Stock Exchange. Since the number of banks is so large, a census was employed to select ten banks as targeted in the study. Data was collected from annual reports of the seven banks for the 7 years between 2009 and 2016. Panel data techniques were employed to analyze the data. The findings from the analysis showed that there is a negative significant effect of lending rate on the loan portfolio of the listed Agriculture Development banks in the country. The major recommendation was that great efforts should be made by banks management to manage their operational cost, which will reduce the lending rate and consequently reduce non-performing loans and increase portfolio size
