The main purpose of this study was to establish the effect of mobile phone technology
innovations on financial deepening within the banking industry in Kenya. The study
adopted a survey research design since it focused on commercial banks in Kenya. It
made use of secondary data that was partly collected from the published financial
statements of commercial banks in Kenya while the rest of the data was obtained from
various departments of the said commercial banks. The researcher managed to collect
data from 35 commercial banks in Kenya. Regression analysis was used to establish
the effect of mobile phone technology innovations on financial deepening within the
banking industry in Kenya. The study revealed that mobile phone technology
innovation explains some variance in the financial deepening of the banking industry
in Kenya. However the variance explained is not higher than the unexplained
percentage since there are other variables that explain a greater percentage of financial
deepening in the banking industry. As such, the results of the model indicate that none
of the variables is significantly related to the dependent variable.
