OLS method of timation was adopted on a multiple regression equation. The study employed a causal design. The results indicate a significant positive relationship between net interest income and return on assets. Even though there is a negative relationship between return on assets and loan loss provision on one hand and Interest Rate Spread on the other they are insignificant.
