| dc.description | It has been observed in the financial sector that most of the banks do not achieve what they have planned to achieve due to deviations in the financial sector or banking sector. The reason for this failure is associated with the steps that banks undertake in the process of achieving the stated objectives. However, it becomes risky when there are differences in possible outcomes and deviations in expectations. The banking sectors continue to experience risk of different kinds, as a result of the differences of outcomes. It becomes very crucial when banks are seen as an activity of throwing a-die, where the possible outcome cannot be predetermined before performing the activity. The degree of the risk is the measure of the accuracy with which the outcome of an event based on the changes can be predicted. It implies that the accuracy of the predictions of an outcome of an event base on the chances, the less the degree of risk vis-à-vis, the less accuracy predictions the more the degree of risk. | en_US |

The study focused on the identification of the various types of risk facing O.A.R.B.Ltd. and how best these risk identified could be controlled to the barest minimum. The study again sought to determine the various steps used to control risk in O.A.R.B.Ltd and how best proper risk management could lead to maximization of shareholders wealth. The methods used for the study were data collection techniques which involve the use of questionnaires and interviews, as well as quantitative and qualitative approach to research. The findings of the study were : Okomfo Anokye Rural Bank Ltd. faces loan default risk, risk involving payments of entitlements to staff and customers who are hurt by the bank in the course of its operations, payments of forgery cheques, wrong crediting and debiting of customers accounts by staff and risk involving fluctuations in exchange rate on the market.
