These objectives are specific and come out to inaugurate the effect of credit risk, operation risk and market risk on the financial performance of commercial banks. Descriptive research design was used in the study. It incorporated primary and secondary data. Data was got from 31 Equity Bank staff through the use of a standardized questionnaire. The staff were selected from the population of 31. It measured the impact of credit, market, and operational risk on commercial banks' financial performance. The results of the studies showed existence of a significant relationship between credit risk management and the financial performance of the bank. The data similarly revealed existence of significant statistical link between liquidity risk and financial performance of the bank. In light of this, it is appropriate with respect to these conclusions to infer from this study that credit risk and market risk may detract from the financial success. Since awareness of such risks improves financial performance, commercial banks should be well-established regarding the structure of risk control. This will boost the banks' financial performance. To improve credit risk management, solid frameworks must be established financial performance. The bank's management should also prioritize addressing its market concerns.
