Summary, etc Strategic controls are the process used by firms to monitor and align implementation of strategic <br/>plans. The study sought to identify the relationship between of strategic controls on financial <br/>performance of deposit taking SACCOS in Meru County, Kenya. The objectives for the study <br/>were: to determine the relationship between implementation controls and financial performance of <br/>deposit taking SACCOS; to establish the relationship between premises controls and financial <br/>performance of deposit taking SACCOS; to investigate the relationship between surveillance <br/>controls and financial performance of deposit taking SACCOS in Meru County, Kenya. The target <br/>population for the study was 1361 employees of deposit taking SACCOs in Meru County. Cluster <br/>sampling was used to identify various clusters while in each cluster simple random sampling was <br/>used to select the respondents. The respondents for the study were Chief Executive Officers, <br/>Branch Managers, and Operations Managers, Sales managers, Human resource Managers and <br/>other employees working under these departments. The study employed descriptive research <br/>design. Questionnaire was used to collect primary data. Multiple linear regression will be used to <br/>explore the relationship between the variables under study. A pilot test will be carried out in <br/>Tharaka-Nithi County deposit taking SACCOS to ensure validity and reliability of data. A <br/>Cronbach alpha coefficient of above 0.7 was obtained for all the variable under the study. Data <br/>will be analyzed using statistical partners for social Service (SPSS) software. The study revealed <br/>that: implementation controls had 82.3% agreement, B = 1.653, p < .05; premises controls <br/>had55.7% agreement and B = 1.334, p <.05; Surveillance controls had an agreement of 60.4% and <br/>ẞ = .503, p < .05; while the moderating variable had agreement of 60.4% and B = -2.048. The <br/>findings revealed that the three independent variables which are Implementation controls, Premise <br/>Controls and Surveillance Controls were statistically significant and positively related to <br/>performance of DT-SACCOS in Meru County. All the three null hypotheses were tested at 5% <br/>level of significance were rejected. The conclusion was that strategic controls implemented by DT<br/>SACCOS in Meru County have positive relationship on financial performance. The study <br/>recommends SACCOS to put greater emphasis in strategic controls in order to enhance financial <br/>performance.
