CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND CONTROL IN NIGERIAN BANKING INSTITUTIONS: MATTERS ARISING
Download This ArticleAbstract
This paper identifies ‘weak corporate governance’ as the major cause of crises in Nigerian banking institutions. It contends that corporate governance is an innovative alternative banking practice that caters appropriately for the needs of all stakeholders in sharp contrast to the conventional banking, which often marginalizes most of the essential stakeholders, as well as vitiates their corporate control. The paper argues that the existing banking reforms, though potentially worthwhile, may even be harmful if corporate governance and control principles are misplaced or misapplied. It therefore cautions that in today’s borderless economy, purposeful corporate governance is not an option but a necessity; and recommends that regulations should fill in the existing slit to synchronize diversity, dissent and differences in corporate governance for a robust banking sector.
