1.0 INTRODUCTION
One of the major functions of commercial
banks is to extend credit facilities to their customers.
Lending has become a vital function in
banking operations owing to its direct effect on economic growth and business
development. Thus, a careful study and proper analysis of lending has become
inevitable to banking students, lending officers, finance manager and other
people concerned with lending activities.
It is pertinent to mention that the
principal lending objectives of a bank is to provide growth, profitability and
liquidity.
For any lending decision and activity to
be worth its salt, there must be enough assurance that it will lead to the
bank’s business growth in terms of an addition variety of services yielding
adequate income to the bank. In addition, it should also increase the available
quality, of bank’s loan resources.
If from the onset, the lending carries
far greater risk than what is considered to be reasonable, it is possible that
it will turn bad at a future date and therefore fail to contribute to the
bank’s loan resources quality wise.
In lending activity, the bank is
concerned with the safety of the loan since it represent the chunk of
depositors’ money and a source of income to the bank.
It is important to ensure the
profitability of the loan because no loan is attractive, if the expected income
is less than the average cost of the borrowed fund. “In the
In order to redress the current
dependence on oil, the federal government formulated policies to encourage
industrialization. Some of these policies are with regards to the pattern of
lending and credit by banks. The role commercial banks in any economy
especially a developing economy like
It is the aim of this project to study
the procedure and policy of granting loans, administration of credit, effect of
bad debt on profitability of banks and other relevant issues.
1.1 STATEMENT OF PROBLEM
It has been revealed from experience
that most lending officers tend to undermine the importance of credit control
and management in their lending function because of the difficulties usually
associated with it.
Lending officers dealing with customers
loan application usually exercise personal judgment in authorizing loan and
disbursement of such loan. In the hope that all will be well with the customer,
his project and the bank’s money.
However, in a dynamic economic environment
as we have in this country where things charge and with banking education and
business experience yet to become well entrenched, a bank should not be cut off
guard because of poor management of its loan portfolio.
There is also the failure of bank
management to establish sound lending policies, adequate credit administration
procedure. Also, their failure to monitor and administer the loan within the
established guidelines primarily results in poor loan portfolio.
Many banks today are facing the problem of
bad debt owing to their failure to monitor the project of their customers.
Banks as custodians of depositors’ fund
are obliged to exercise due care and prudence on their lending operations.

The study is relevant because it will
help banks in their lending operations. It will also help banks to recover
loans granted to their customers and reduce, if not eliminate completely, the
possibility of the loan becoming bad. Thus, profit will increase. Since high
incidence of bad debt is one of the causes of banks failure, the study will
have the overall effect of reducing bank failure, stabilize financial sector
and restore the confidence of depositors in financial sector.

HISTORY OF BANKING
a.
ROLE OF ITALIAN GOLDSMITH
It all started several centuries ago. As
far back as the 13th century, a group of Italian goldsmiths who migrated from
an Italian province, Lomdardly, had settled in a part of
b.
BUSINESS IN GOLD
The Italian goldsmith only carried out
the traditional services of their craft. As time went on, however, their
business grew and they found it necessary to acquire vaults for safe custody of
all gold and precious stones they received from their clients. It was at this
juncture that their services increased to include:
1.
Working
gold for the client
2.
Storing
their gold and those received for work from the client.
3.
Received
gold deposits from clients for safe keeping against receipts.
4.
Lending
part of their gold stock-first from their own and later including deposits from
clients.
c.
FROM GOLD TO MONEY
The fact of issuing of receipts against
deposits of gold gave a lever to the development of banking thus;
1. Goldsmiths released their clients’ deposits
on the surrounding of their receipts.
2.
Due
to the widespread use, goldsmiths’ receipt become transferable.
3.
Goldsmith’s
receipts became the first known issue of notes.
4.
For convenience,
receipts were latter split into smaller units according to needs.
5.
Instead
of lending in gold, goldsmiths issued their notes (receipts) to borrowers
according to the value of gold they required.
6.
goldsmiths
transferred part of the whole of the client’s deposit against the letter of
instruction and this was the beginning of the cheque system.
d.
The Birth of Banking Institutions
The result of the above far-reaching
development in banking activities led to small group of goldsmiths, pooling
their resources together and setting up business as merchant and private
bankers. In 1694, the Bank of England was founded to control the private and
merchant banks, as well as to administer the government’s debt.
