Abstract: This study investigates the role of corporate governance structures as mediators between external supervision, credit appraisal measurement, capital adequacy, and the performance of commercial banks in Nepal. This research sheds light on the significance of effective corporate governance practices within Nepali commercial banks and how certain governance mechanisms may impact bank performance. A quantitative research design was employed, using data from commercial banks in Nepal for this study. Surveys were utilized to collect quantitative data. Structural equation modeling was used as a primary tool to assess the data. The findings add to existing literature about corporate governance and its effects on bank performance in emerging economies such as Nepal. The study’s findings offer valuable insights into the significance of corporate governance structures, external supervision, credit appraisal measurement systems, and capital adequacy for commercial banks’ performance in Nepal. The research methodology adds value to the existing literature using quantitative data collection methods. Its results may have practical ramifications for banks, regulators, and policymakers, suggesting effective governance practices as essential measures for increasing stability and performance at commercial banks.
