| dc.description.abstract | No country can ever have a healthy economy without a sound and effective banking system. In the system of modern economy, banks play a very sound role in economic development of country. They collect the surplus savings of the large group of population and make them available for those economic agents who have best investment opportunity. They also create new demand deposits in the process of granting loans and purchasing investment securities. They stimulate a country‟s economy through facilitation of economic activities. This research paper has made its focus to the empirical study of the contribution of commercial banks to the economic growth of Ethiopia by taking financial sector development indicator variables deposit, loan, asset and profit as an explanatory variables and RGDP as a dependent variable. The study empirically analyses the contribution of commercial banks to Economic Growth in Ethiopia using time series data over the period 2001-2020.After the data‟s are confirmed for normality, causality, serial correlation and collinearity tests a five variable time series Ordinary Least Squares regression analysis is employed to estimate the parameters. The result of this study, therefore, provides that there is positive and significant relation between the independent variables asset, deposit and loan with RGDP and a negative but significant association between profit and RGDP. And this could have a sound and comprehensive benefit to the study country. | en_US |
