Background This paper investigates the performance of South


Africa’s commercial banking sector for the period
2005- 2009. Financial ratios are employed to
measure the profitability, liquidity and credit
quality performance of five large South African
based commercial banks. The study found that
overall bank performance increased considerably
in the first two years of the analysis. A significant
change in trend is noticed at the onset of the
global financial crisis in 2007, reaching its peak
during 2008-2009. This resulted in falling
profitability, low liquidity and deteriorating credit
quality in the South African Banking sector
Problems South African banks are faced with increasing
competition and rising costs as a result of
regulatory requirements, financial and
technological innovation, entry of large foreign
banks in the retail banking environment and
challenges of the recent financial crisis.
Purpose of the study This paper investigates the performance of South
Africa’s commercial banking
sector for the period 2005- 2009.
Research Methods This paper uses a descriptive financial ratio
analysis to measure, describe and analyse the
performance of commercial banks in South Africa
during the period 2005-2009.
Research sample The population for this research comprise of all
the banks operating in South Africa between
2005 and 2009. A sample of the top five
commercial banks was selected based on the
value of their total assets at the end of the 2009
financial year end (FirstRand Bank, Absa,
Nedbank, Standard Bank and Imperial bank).
Result The results showed that the bank's overall
performance in terms of profitability, liquidity,
and credit quality has improved from 2005 to
2007. However, the bank's performance
experienced a decline during 2008-2009 as the
bank's operational environment deteriorated due
to the global financial crisis and economic
slowdown.
