INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
In Nigeria, as in many other developing countries there is dearth of financial institutions which cater for long and medium term credit needs of business operations. In exception to this, they suffer a great deal for want of capital for development and expansion.
By definition, commercial bank is an institution where money and other valuable items are kept for security purposes and at the same time transact business such as giving of loans and advances.
Among the most important commercial banks in Nigeria are: The First Bank Plc formerly known as the bank of West Africa which has the largest assets and located its head office in Nigeria at 37 Marina, Lagos.
The Union Bank formerly-known as Barclays Bank which was established in the year 1917 in Lagos as the first branch and is the first bank to hit one billion naira customers’ deposit.
The commercial banks trend made through British and French Banks now called the United Bank for Africa Limited which was established in 1949 making it the third expatriate bank of dominate the early Nigerian Commercial Banking.
The issue however remains that her pace, towards economic development has not kept record with the naturally endowed nations. While some sectors of the economy have recorded some significant growth, others continued to lag behind inspite of increased financial resource allocations.
