    (KNUST, 2016-08) ERNEST, OSEI
    This work studies the influence of board structure on performance of rural banks in Ghana. Five (5) rural banks in the Kumasi Metropolis were selected and their financial statements from 2010-2014 were used. The Ordinary least Square (OLS) method was applied to the data. It was found that the number of people on boards of rural banks negatively affects performance and non-executive directors on the board positively affect performance. The study recommends that an environment that encourages and brings out the positive contribution of female on boards of rural banks should be made.
