CHAPTER ONE

1.1   BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Banks study a very useful and dynamic role in the economic life of every modern nation.  It has been ascertained from studies that the evolution of the commercial banks in the 18^th and 19^th centuries paved way for industrial revolution in Europe.  The banking sector therefore, occupied a certain position or remain germane to the development of any nation.

It should be noted that developing countries (Nigeria inclusive) are faced with the hearculean task of sustaining economic growth. It is against this back drop that various sector of the economy, the banking sector in particular in Nigeria witnesses various reforms to help stabilize the economy of the country.

In1990 the federal government gave approval for the establishment of community based bank to cater for the rural dwellers to achieve the nation’s objective of a holistic appreciable development.  The banks are to develop rural areas through mobilization of excess funds in circulation, inculcating banking habit in people and making credit facilities readily available to the people towards their socio economic development.  Apart from mobilization of excess funds from the society for investment purpose by the borrowers, it is also meant to promote commerce through transfer of funds from the surplus or deficit spending unit which lead to an aggregative long-run development.

 

To this end, the banking sector, therefore could be seen as the nerve centre or the hub on which the economic development of a nation depends.  It therefore behooves  the ruling class to put in place a pragmatic policy that will accord the sector enabling environment to function.

However quit a large number of the populations of rural dwellers are obvious of myriad of opportunities that abound in this sector.  While the urban populace harness and tap the potentials in the banking system, the rural dwellers through much persuasion still not really there  yet in terms of socio economic development trough banking system.
