The research questions are thus is it the inadequate attention accorded to un-organized private sector in favour of the organized sector (especially the merchant banks). Is it the erosion of their capital base due to inflationary trends in the economy not enough? Is it due to lack of technical expertise in most banks? And is it due to poor internal control systems and the rate at which banld 90 in liquidation?

Over the last couple of decades the Nigeria almost crude form it has characterized with in pre-colonial and colonial dry. It has become sophisticated that economic experts today can proudly  thump their chests. With due regard to ownership structure of the institution, the regulatory framework, the instrument employed and number of established institutions, Nigeria can be said to posses the most sophisticated financial system in Africa.

Within the Nigeria financial system itself, the banking institution have been most remarkable in growth this is just as well in any case considering the critical position which they occupy in a complex financial position which supplies the money and cridit needs of the economy.

a.           The cultivation of a stable political environment.

b.          The strengthening of regulatory agencies

c.           The taking over by regulatory bodies of all terminally distressed banks.
