CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
It is a trite fact that the central bank of Nigeria (CBN) was established by the federal government of Nigeria to produce the Nigerian currency enact and execute monetary policy to promote monetary stability and a sound financial system in Nigeria. To regulate the banking sector through its monetary policies and laws which every banks must adhere to before its operations. The central banks of Nigeria carries out this role objective on behalf o the federal government through a process stipulated in the central bank of Nigeria decree No 24 1991 and the banks and other financial institution decree No 25 of 1991
Prior to the enactment of the monetary policy the governor of the central bank of Nigeria make proposals to the president of the federal republic of Nigeria who has the right and power to accept or amend where necessary such proposal. Thus once the proposal are authorized by the president it becomes a law, which the central bank of Nigeria is obligated to implement. The two enabling laws stated above empowers the central banks of Nigeria to direct the carry out other financial institutions to carry out certain duties in pursuit of the approval monetary policy. Usually the monetary policy to be pursued is detailed out in the from of guidelines to all banks. The guidelines are generally operated with in a fiscal years but the element could be amended in the cause of the year. Penalties are normally prescribed for non-compliance with specific provision in the guidelines.
The banking industrial plays a vital role in the development of the economy of any nation. Be that as it may among the industrial sectors in the country today one can say that the banking sector arouses the most visible and fastest growing sector in the Nigeria economy.
Bank role in aiding the acceleration and expansion of the economic development of any nation particularly in serving, as an engendering in developing countries cannot be over emphasized.
Articulating on the importance of its role (Fabanmi JO 1989) States “institutions which affects the body politic of a nation must be subjected to adequate and rational regulation and supervision otherwise a collapse of the entire system will be noticed due to unmanaged unattended and over regulated colossus”
The banking sector has become one of the critical sector and commanding heights of the economy use to effective participation in the direct of economic growth and transformation and such sensitive issues as the of unemployment inflation price stability or any other macroeconomic goal which directly affects the lives of our people. Gardner (1984p53) pointed out clearly that:
In virtually all developed market economy the banking industry is more heavily regulated than other commercial and industrial sectors” banking is regulated from cradle to grave he conduced.
Presently in virtually all-independent countries in both developed and undeveloped countries banks particularly commercial banks operate under constraints imposed on them by government through their central banks. In a developing country like Nigeria the position is not different.
The pressure for banking regulations and policies grew as people realized that the failure of a bank could mean the loss of a personal future or of a firms working capital. According to Nwankwo G.O (1990) “A run on one bank often generates uncertainly and panic among depositor of other banks in the community and the spill over of failure could in turn be transmitted to more remote part of the country. It therefore becomes situationally expedient that banks should be controlled because of the key role they plays with customers in saving and deposit investment process. Banks are regulated because their liabilities are “money” the quantity of which national authorities seek to control to achieve monetary stability.
In many countries inkling developing countries with undeveloped or competitive domestic banking system nationalism has dictated regulation of banking of nature and protect the domestic banking system and prevent it form take over or domination by foreign banks which may be inclined to give priority to commercial advantages or to another nation interest. It has been judicially notices that the banking industry is entrusted with a lot of responsibility and this is due to its direct and indirect influence in the overall performance of the whole economic system to thrive there must be regulations some legislation had been enacted to help in the process of economic and financial development banking laws on the other hand are in this country (Nigeria ) to regulate banking industry prevent bank failures and thus help to build strong confidence to he public in the banking sector.
The maximization of profit is the sole aim of those that invest in the banking business since banks are commercial business firms. Recently banks profit are increasing as a result of the more attention given to it by bank management supervisory authorities as well as stockholder with the resultant effect that the number of banks have multiplied in recent times. Top executives of banks in Nigeria are more concerned about profitability especially now that profit are no longer looking after themselves as they did in the 1970’s when the mobilization of crude oil exports created favorable economic conditions which benefited the Nigerian banking system very much.
Moreover the recent deregulation of the banking industry under the structural adjustment programme (SAP) in July 1986 has added to pressure on bank management to work for satisfactory profit. Within this programme the economy has been up for bank to take advantage of the policy incentive to encourage of the policy incentive to encourage the efficient use of scare resources.
Banks play a pivotal role in the nations economy. This is because of the function carried out by banks and other financial institutions. Such roles include: saving the people money for investment purposes acting as an institution that carries out payment services that is checks. Granting of demand or transactional deposit and undertakes commercial lending. This centrality on economic system singled the banking sector out for a much heavier regulation than any other activities (Johnson and John 1987 p2). Such function performed by banks are other financial institutions if not check or properly administered will lead to chaso and economics breakdown hence the need for monetary policy. This work would seek to find out form-satisfied analysis the impact, which the monetary policies have on the following:
The rate at which most banks failed in recent years has been tremendous and a common phenomenon. The regulatory period created the problem of competition survival of the fillets in the banking industry. The objective a this work is to find out the following:
And lastly whether in the formulation of these measures the objective of the authorities and that of the economic as a whole had been meet
