Over the past few years, we have seen tremendous improvement across the region, but much remains to be done. The purpose of this body of work is to understand the state of financial inclusion across the EAC and identify how to advance. The first step is to map the financial inclusion landscape to identify stakeholders, gaps, and areas for intervention. We carried out data collection and network mapping for all six EAC Member States.

    THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BUSINESS & MANAGEMENT ISSN 2321–8916 www.theijbm.com THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BUSINESS & MANAGEMENT The Effect of Operational Risk Management on Financial Performance of Commercial Banks: A Case of Tier Two and Three Commercial Banks in Kenya Rose Waithira Kamau Operations Officer, Department of Branch Operations, SBM Bank Kenya Limited, Nairobi, Kenya Dr. James Gatauwa Lecturer, Department of Accounting and Finance, Kenya Methodist University, Kenya Dr. Felix Mwambia Lecturer, Department of Accounting and Finance, Kenya Methodist University, Kenya Abstract: Kenyan banking sector is exposed to risks that initiate from external and internal environments. Operational risk threatens the viability and long-term sustainability of banks. Despite growth in the Kenyan banking sector, operational risk possesses a major challenge. The main objective of this paper was to examine the impact of operational risk on the financial health of tier two and three commercial banks in Kenya. The findings indicate that operational risk has a significant negative effect on the financial performance of tier two and three banks. Bank size has a significant positive effect on the financial performance of tier two and three banks. The study also concluded that tier three banks are not able to mitigate operational risks as well as tier two banks through the dummy variable measure. Banks are therefore encouraged to develop effective risk management and measurements techniques to avoid huge operational losses that negatively affect the financial health of the institutions. Keywords: Operational risk, financial performance, Bank size, dummy variable 1. Introduction Commercial banks are established to maximize their shareholder value which is a function of risk and return.
