BIBLIOGRAPHY CHAPTER ONEINTRODUCTION1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The banking system in Nigeria is made up of the central, commercial, merchant, development and agricultural bank.
These financial houses were established for the central of money, purchase and sale of securities, transfer and clearing and other banking transactions. Hence, banking as a profession has existed for several decades now, but unfortunately there was no generally accepted satisfactory meaning until 1958, when the banking act defined banking as the business of receiving monies, valuables and securities from outside sources. The purchase and sale of securities by bank or granting of loan in respect to maturity or the success of the business, this lead to Hart definition of bank or banker as a person or company carrying on the business of transferring money to assets and receiving monies from customers, subject to the collection of drafts and honouring of cheques drawn upon them from time to time by the customers, to the extent of the amount available on their current accounts.
These banking systems are closely monitored and regulated by the government agents known as Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), international monetary fund (IMF). This is to ensure that they render services to their customers and also to keep proper account of the business.
Owing the need to accountability and effectiveness of the organization, the management personnel of the bank introduced the internal control (audit department). Among other department in the banking business, the management pays more attention to the internal control to enable them plan control the inflow of cash in the organization for efficiency and good management policy.
Under the organizational efficiency, it is important to establish a follow up mechanism so that the performance of the firm will be monitored to know whether staff structure management plans and policies and finance are working accordingly. Therefore it is in the light of the above factors that the management function of controlling becomes very desirable.
In order ensure that suitable procedures are maintained, the bank management established the internal audit unit otherwise called the inspectorate division. The inspectorate division is an important organ of the internal control system. Hence, our study examines the purpose, techniques and requirements of good and efficiency inspector and its contribution effective bank management resources based on the circumstances of the union bank of Nigeria Plc.

There is also this problem of poor attention of bank staff to customers, which leads to inadequate fund and poor cash flow of the bank daily transaction.
The problem of disorganized organizational structure and line staff structure, also contribute to the low income in the company. This is because the managers in an organization at times plan on what to do, take decision, execute and as well collect fund from outside bodies or customers and at the end, irregularity will occur in the account book and this will affect the financial report for such firm.
Moreover, lack of economic stability and efficiency in operation records of bank transaction made by bank managers contributes to the irregularity in financial books and records.
