ABSTRACT
The study was all about internal control systems and the performance
of financial institutions of GT Bank, Kigali, Rwanda (2016-
2020).Methodology of the study based on explanatory research
design; the population of this study was 105 of employees of GT
Bank-Rwanda, which was used as sample size using universal
sampling method to gather information from respondents. The study
used descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings on the effect of
control activities on financial performance of GT Bank Rwanda were
presented on Table 4.9 indicates the value of R-square in this studyis
87.3% means that the proportion of financial performance as
dependent variable is explained by the independent variables (control
activities) at 87.3%. This indicates that the model is very strong, as
the independent variable very highly explain the dependent variable.
The adjusted R-square is used to compensate for additional variable
in the model. In this case, the adjusted R-square is 87.2%. Findings
on the effect of risk assessment on financial performance of GTBank
Rwanda were presented on Table 4.12 show the value of R-square in
this study is 61.1% means that the proportion of financial
performance (dependent variable) is explained by the independent
variables (Risk assessment) at 61.1%. This indicated that the model
was strong, as the independent variable highly explain the dependent
variable. The adjusted R-square was used to compensate for
additional variable in the model. In this case, the adjusted R-square is
60.8%. Findings on the effect of control environment on financial
performance of banking institutions in Rwanda confirmed on table
4.15 present the value of R-square in this study was 51.1% means
that the proportion of financial performance (dependent variable) is
explained by the independent variables (Control environment) at
51.1%.

Background of the Study
Around the world, many businesses, public, and
Private Corporation have experienced the various
limitations to reach their organizational objectives.
The frauds, money laundering and terrorism activities
are mainly affecting the corporate mission and vision
(Lawry&Lynn, 2009). Poor organization and
inadequate control of risks created financial crises in
the world, and the preliminary domestic crises spread
the world through globalization in a short period. The
global financial crisis decorated the importance of
well-functioning and healthy banking sector for
macro stability. One of the main motives of banking
dissatisfactions effects major financial loss and even
bankruptcy remains due to high risks booked by the
bank management on an excessive scale and inability
of regulatory them (Chance, 2004)
Objectives of the Study
1. To determine the effect of control activities on
financial performance of banking institutions in
Rwanda.
2. To establish the effect of risk assessment on
financial performance of banking institutions in
Rwanda.

3. To investigate the effect of control environment
on financial performance of banking institutions
in Rwanda
Research Hypotheses
Ho1: Control activities has significant effect on
performance of financial institutions in Rwanda.
Ho2: Risk assessment has significant effect on
performance of financial institutions in Rwanda.
Ho3: Control environment has significant effect on

Geographical Scope
In terms of space, GT-Bank-Rwanda was favorite as
area of specialization of this study. It is located in
Kigali City, Nyarugenge District, Nyarugenge Sector,
KN2 Avenue1370.The management staffs of the
institutions in the department of finance would be
involved since they have knowledge and would
provide information on finance reports in relation to
internal control system of banking institutions in
Rwanda. It was supposed that this provided an
adequate information for the study and give reliable
results and findings.
Concept of Internal Control System & Financial
Performance
Financial performance remains a precise portion of
how fine a secure can use properties from its main
mode of business and make revenues. This period is
used as a general degree of a firm's overall financial
health over a given period, and can be used to
compare similar firms across the same industry or to
equivalence industries or sectors in combination
(Kumar B. 2019)
Internal controls are methods put in place by a
company to ensure the integrity of financial and
accounting information, meet operational and
profitabilitytargets and transmit management policies
throughout the organization (Armstrong&Baron,
2012).
Kumar B. (2011) outlines internal control system as
entire system of controls, financial and then
recognized by the management in order to conveythe
business of the enterprise in an orderly and efficient
manner, defend the assets and protected as possible
the fullness and accuracy of the records. The internal
control ensures that the business is carried in an
orderly and efficient way, transactions take place
according to set procedures, assets are safeguarded
properly, prevention and detection of fraud and error,
accuracy and completeness of accounting records and
timely preparation of reliable financial information
(Kumar B. 2021).

Findings on Profitability ratios
The profitability analyses are achieved on a set of indicators to measure the banking performances. The
indicators result/arise from the accounting dates, which illustrate the reference periods in the synthetic
expressions of balance sheet and the profit and loss account.
Gross profit ratio
Gross profit ratio is one of the profitability ratio that compares gross margin of a business to the net sales; it also
measures how profitable a company sells its inventory or merchandise. In other words, this is the pure profit
from sale of inventory or services that can go to pay operating expenses. This study analyzed five years of gross
profit ratio of GTBank Rwanda as calculated to assess how the Bank has made profits.

Findings on gross profit Margin show that in 2016, GTBank Rwanda had 0.39% of gross profit margin increased
in 2017 until on 15.71%; in 2018, gross profit margin reached on 26.97% which continued to grow up to 47.16%
in 2019, and become so exciting in 2020 where Gross profit margin become 80.87%, these progress increase of
gross profit margin in GTBank was due to effective and strong internal control system employed by this Bank.
Return on Assets
This metric measures how effectively the company produces income from its assets. You calculate it by dividing
net income (NI) for the current year by the value of all bank’s assets (A) and multiplying the quotient by 100:
Return on Assets = Net Income/Assets x 100 or ROA = NI/A x 100.

Return on Equity
Return on equity measures how much a company makes for each FRW that investors put into it. You calculate it
by taking the net income earned (NI) by the amount of money invested by shareholders (SI) and multiplying the
quotient by 100: Return on equity = net income/shareholder investment x 100 or ROE = NI/SI x 100.

The frauds, money laundering and terrorism activities are mainly affecting the corporate mission and vision (Lawry&Lynn, 2009). Poor organization and inadequate control of risks created financial crises in the world, and the preliminary domestic crises spread the world through globalization in a short period. The global financial crisis decorated the importance of well-functioning and healthy banking sector for macro stability. One of the main motives of banking dissatisfactions effects major financial loss and even bankruptcy remains due to high risks booked by the bank management on an excessive scale and inability of regulatory them (Chance, 2004) Objectives of the Study 1. To determine the effect of control activities on financial performance of banking institutions in Rwanda. 2. To establish the effect of risk assessment on financial performance of banking institutions in Rwanda. IJTSRD50323

To investigate the effect of control environment on financial performance of banking institutions in Rwanda Research Hypotheses Ho1: Control activities has significant effect on performance of financial institutions in Rwanda. Ho2: Risk assessment has significant effect on performance of financial institutions in Rwanda. Ho3: Control environment has significant effect on performance of financial institutions in Rwanda. Geographical Scope In terms of space, GT-Bank-Rwanda was favorite as area of specialization of this study. It is located in Kigali City, Nyarugenge District, Nyarugenge Sector, KN2 Avenue1370.The management staffs of the institutions in the department of finance would be involved since they have knowledge and would provide information on finance reports in relation to internal control system of banking institutions in Rwanda. It was supposed that this provided an adequate information for the study and give reliable results and findings. Concept of Internal Control System & Financial Performance Financial performance remains a precise portion of how fine a secure can use properties from its main mode of business and make revenues. This period is used as a general degree of a firm's overall financial health over a given period, and can be used to compare similar firms across the same industry or to equivalence industries or sectors in combination (Kumar B. 2019) Internal controls are methods put in place by a company to ensure the integrity of financial and accounting information, meet operational and profitabilitytargets and transmit management policies throughout the organization (Armstrong&Baron, 2012). Kumar B. (2011) outlines internal control system as entire system of controls, financial and then recognized by the management in order to conveythe business of the enterprise in an orderly and efficient manner, defend the assets and protected as possible the fullness and accuracy of the records. The internal control ensures that the business is carried in an orderly and efficient way, transactions take place according to set procedures, assets are safeguarded properly, prevention and detection of fraud and error, accuracy and completeness of accounting records and timely preparation of reliable financial information (Kumar B. 2021). Financial performance remains a precise portion of how fine a secure can use properties from its main mode of business and make revenues. This period is used as a general degree of a firm's overall financial health over a given period, and can be used to compare similar firms across the same industry or to equivalence industries or sectors in combination (Kumar B. 2019).

Findings on Profitability ratios The profitability analyses are achieved on a set of indicators to measure the banking performances. The indicators result/arise from the accounting dates, which illustrate the reference periods in the synthetic expressions of balance sheet and the profit and loss account.
