Abstract
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the Effect of Non-interest Income on financial performance of Joint venture Banks in Nepal. The dependent variables are Return on Assets and Return on Equity. The independent variables are Assets Size, Letter of Credit Fee, Guarantee Income, Remittance Fee, Service Charge, Renewal Fee, Exchange Income, Profit/loss on Sale of Assets, Dividend Income. Secondary panel data was used that covered a period of seven years (2016/17 to 2022/23) of the major six Joint Venture Commercial Banks. The descriptive statistical tools, ratio analysis and correlation and regression test have been used to make analysis meaningful and systematic and meet the research objective. The study findings revealed that there is a negative significant effect of Assets Size on both Return on Assets and Return on Equity. This shows that there is a positive significant effect of Renewal Fee on both Return on Assets and Return on Equity. This shows that there is a positive significant effect of Profit/loss on Sale of Assets on Return on Assets. This shows that there is a negative significant effect of Remittance Fee and Exchange Income on Return on Equity. It is found that the variables like Assets Size and Renewal Fee has effect on both Return on Assets and Return on equity. Hence, the banks instead of focusing on all the other variables of non-interest income, they can scrutinize there area of focus on these variables more than the other as they have a significant relationship on the profitability. Hence these variables should not be ignored as they lead to increase in profit with minor risk than the interest income variables.
