CHAPTER ONE
1.0  INTRODUCTION
1.1  BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The practice of banking and financing in Nigeria is culturally rooted and dated back several centuries ago. In the 1940s, the traditional financial institutions provide access to credit for rural and urban low-income earners. They are mainly of the informal self help Groups (SHGS or Rotating Savings and credit Association (ROSCAS) types. The informal financial institutions generally have limited outreach due primarily to paucity of loanable funds. In order to enhance the flow of financial services to Nigerians, government has in the past initiated a series of publicly financed micro credit programmes and policies targeted at productivity enhancement.
Notable among such programmes were the rural banking programme, sectored allocation of credits, the Agricultural Credit Guarantee Scheme (ACGS) etc other institutional arrangement were the establishment of the Nigerian agricultural and co-operative bank limited (NBCB), the National Directorate of Employment (NDE), the people Bank of Nigeria (PBN), the community banks (CBS) and the family Economic Advancement Prorgramme (FEAP) all aimed at improving the economic growth of the nation year 2005 was remarkable in the history of Nigerian Banking Industry. The consolidation exercise initiated by theCentral Bank of Nigeria (CBN)on jury 2004 came to head on December 31, 2003 with 14 banks unable to meet the N25 billion recapitalization requirement. The apex bank revoked the licensesof the 14 banks mean while, the 25 banks successfully met the N25 billion minimum capital requirements represent 93.5% of the total deposits of the 89 banks that existed in the country reconsolidation. In the process, about N406 billion was raised from the capital market while an inflow of 652 million was generated from outside the economy.
In other to lower industry, cost of funds, the Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) was reduced by 6% points from 11% to 5% with banks in special central bank of Nigeria (CBN) instrument with a tenure of 91 days at 3% coupon rate. Furthermore, a 1 year with a view to restructuring the deposit profile of the federal government. Similarly, verse inflationary trend and encourage long tenured investment the 182 days non. Discountable bill was introduced.
Deposit money banks are involved in the process of increasing the wealth of the economy, particularly the capital goods needed for raising productivity. In developing countries like Nigeria, income is very low and that as such low level investment can be made, if possible without requiring a long period effort at savings. Financial intermediaries have a vital role to play here, in raising both the savings and investment to the level necessary to achieve to self sustained growth.
In manpower development, banks contribute highly in training staff and development through both local and foreign facilitation. In order to strengthen our work force and take advantage of emerging market opportunities, banks also recruit various professionals with broad industry knowledge and hands on experience.
In financing the economy, the bank has aligned its financial intervention in the economy with a clear understandingof high impart character of government’s privatization and deregulation program. The search made for the most efficient and effective domestic vending portfolio has meant that deposit money banks have led the financing of private investment in industrial development in the economy.
The financial institutions are therefore capable of influencing the major savings factors namely, ability, willingness or saving propensities and opportunities. The need to achieve sustained industrial growth within any economy can be possible amidst strong financial institution and precisely within the existence such that are tailored to work in accordance with government policies and program in a bud to attaining the desired macro-economic objectives of a nation banks as components of financial sector consist of the apex i.e. Central Bank, merchant banks and specialized banks.
