Abstract: Organisations differ in their capacity to manage and implement strategies as internal operations determine their strengths and weaknesses, as well as develop strategic plans to exploit environmental opportunities. This paper assesses the effect of internal factors on strategic management practices (SMPs) of deposit money banks (DMBs) in South West, Nigeria. Multistage sampling procedure was adopted to obtain 384 questionnaires from various cadres in the DMBs. Data analysis was conducted using partial least square structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS version 3. The findings of the study revealed that communication system, financial capacity, and human capital constructs were positive and significant predictors of SMPs, whereas others were not significant. This suggests that DMBs should leverage the communication system to enhance the effectiveness of SMPs and ensure that adequate financial resources are allocated to enhance the business operations of the DMBs. We further provide implications and draw conclusion from the findings.
