The empirical investigation uses the accounting measure of Return on Equity (ROE), which is the explained variable, to represent Banks’ performance while seven independent variables have been taken as explanatory variables. Secondary data are used for nine banks which stayed in the industry for more than nine years among sixteen private banks which are functional at the moment in Ethiopian banking industry. Data used for this analysis is obtained from banks’ annual reports, NBE annual reports and Ministry of Finance and Economic Development.

NPL,LTDR,GDP,EXRA and DEPG had a significant impact on banks’ profitability at 10% significant level.
