PROPOSAL

Nigerian Deposit Insurance scorporation is one of the Regulatory authorities that plays a vital role in our financial institutions. The study will base on the role of “NDIC” Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation in managing Financial distress. However, the researcher will be acquainted with related literatures. The population  of the study must comprise the Bank staff and  Bank costomers of Citizen Bank Enugu and  the NDIC  Official in Enugu.

In that case, the sample size will be determined with the Taro Tamanis formular primary and secondary sources of data will be used; coupled with the chi-square to test the formulated hypothesis. Liquidation option as financial distress. Management has implications on confidence of the banking public.

Actually, the financial distress in Nigeria banking system  cannot be controlled single handedly. And this owes to the fact that Economic depression which also affects the level of assets and liabilities of banks cannot be offset only by means of a  deposit insurance corporation.

Indeed,  a good findings will give us a  nice recommendation and  conclusion as the  role of NDIC in Managing financial distress.

INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Significant progress has been made during the past years but more intensely during the last five years towards the significations of the Nigerian financial sector through the implementation of distress resolution options. The Nigerian financial systems comprise the financial institutions rules and regulations instruments, and markets for effective intermediation. The financial institution unit of the systems comprises two major categories of institutions in the Deposit taking types and the non-Deposit taking types.

Deposit taking financial institutional include banks, and other saving institutions.

The Nigerian financial sector has been in state of trauma. The banking industry was not exception. Financial distress, non-supportive investment climate, political instability and likes and the major problems that militate against   effective banking systems in Nigeria.

Financial distress is an ancient problem that had posed great difficulties to the Nigeria banking sector. The incident of distress in the Nigerian financial sector was first recorded in history during the 1930 world economic depression.

Distress in the Nigerian banking system dates back to the early 50’s when about 51 banks were forced out of the system following the introduction of the very first banking law in Nigeria, the banking or distance of 1952. The ordinance  and the CBN Act of 1958 brought the first ever regulation and sanity into the banking system, which was formally a free banking, era. However, the degree of intensity and   the scope of financial distress in banks  had never been as deep as has been observed  since the year 1986.  the periods of years starting from 1986-1995 witnessed the greatest ever recommended distress incidence in the Nigerian banking industry. This owned its strength from the operational issues involved in the introduction and implementation of the structural adjustment programme (SAP). During the  SAP, the economy was deregulated, banking licence  was easily obtained, there was an influx of the banking system with  both efficient and inefficient banks.

The incidence of financial distress got of it peak in the year 1989 when the government withdrew its deposit and that of the other public sector institutions from commercial and merchant Banks to the control Banks  of Nigeria. This act exposed the weak financial conditions of most banks.

The monetary authority had come with more regulations and regulatory policies on the  banking industry in the development sector in a modern economy cannot be over-emphasized. The   important of a banking sector in any economy derives from its role of financial intermediation, provision of an efficient payment system, and facilitation of the implementation of  monetary policies. An efficient and effective banking sector is essential not only for the protection of depositors encouragement  of healthy competition maintenance and protection against system risk Ebhodaghe (1996:24).

Another role or essential role that is being carried out by banks, states  by  Emekekwue is the role of transferring saving   from the surplus economic units of deficit economic units who will utilize these saving in generating investments. The savings surplus economic units would in the process have earned income in the form of interest  on those funds that could have been lying idle. Whole the savings, deficit economic unit would in the process earn profit from their investment.  It is against this background that they are called financial intermediacies (Emekekwue 1997:15)

In contrast to the ideal, the Nigerian banking sector is caught  up in systemic crises.

The   menance of  financial  distress  in banks lead to every many reactions and actions taken by the federal governement and its agents in financial matters (The Central Banks of Nigeria ).

Among the actions taken include the terminations of SAP in the year 1991 following the enactment of Bank  and other financial institutions Decree (BOFID)No 25 of 1991 still on its attempt to provide a cushion against further bank failures, the Nigerian Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC) was established under the  NDIC decree No  22 of 1988 by the  federal Government there was also the introduction of the prudential guideline the year 1990.

Re-capitalization and stringent regulation of banks were also among the effective tools adopted by the government and the CBN  to fight  against financial distress in Nigeria.

It is the objective of the research work tot identify the main course of distress in the Nigerian banking sector, assess the NDIC set out  modalities for fighting and managing financial distress in the  banking system.

The researchers would also try to assess the NDIC performance in it financial distress management role in the banking industry.

Many problem facing the corporation in its distress management functions shall be discussed, suggestions  on better options for achieving the aim of its establishment this piece of work has much to tell about  the NDIC   and its roles in banking distress management.

1.2              STATEMENT  OF PROBLEM

Financial distress in an economic setting always has a lot of trouble, and  numerous problems associated with it. When an economy distress, nodling moves smoothly.

Labour suffers, government suffers, like wise  income per capital goes down and there comes economic depression.  In the banking and financial sector, the situation goes the same way in periods of financial distress banks do not meet up with depositors demands. Borrowers and investors finds   things difficult since credit will be  hard to obtain shareholders and foreign merchant are not   left out.

During  the late 80s when the issues of financial distress was well pronounced in most  Nigerian banks, there erupted a lot of fear and created argument in the banking sector  and  the entire economy.

Those fears and argument started from  broad issues  and narrowed down to more specific ones for instance, some deposition questioned and rationality behind their banking habit.

A good  number of depositions resorted to the financial institutions which are not part of the monetary base and that  will constitute  a problem to effective  operations and individuals took to investing their cash in tangible assets like building and cars. This act would handicap effective financial intermediatory roles of the bank since customers deposits constitute main assets of banks.

In the areas  of  role of erea of NDIC in bank distress management, a  lot of problems do arise.  In the year 1998, for instance, certain controversial issues emanated from the operations of the  corporation.

The liquidation exercise and the long silence and delayed that proceeded was not desired by the banking public. Many depositors were sent to their grave before NDIC decided to come to sawage.

Another problem  is the issue of amount insured the maximum coverage of #50,000 per depositors in the events of bank failure is generally considered not enough by the general public. The inadequacy of the amount insured is a big problem in the sense that most depositors do lose huge sums especially the uninsured depositors.

It is against these problem that the study would try to have an objective view of the constitute hindrance and economic set back.
