Moreover, asset quality is important in determining bank performance. The findings on asset quality present both AQ2 and AQ3, which are significant. The negative relationship of AQ2 means that as loan loss provisions decrease, the performance of the bank increases while the positive relationship of AQ3 indicates that the increase of assets to be financed with loans would increase the bank’s performance. The study by Dzeawuni and Tanko (2008) also reported that the ratio of loan loss provisions to total loans is significant to bank performance. They indicated that the ratio is the best suited to evaluate asset quality toward bank performance. Thus, hypothesis testing should accept that there is an association between asset quality and bank performance.
