Consequently, the government often deem it necessary to formulate policies, for the soundness, efficiency and safety of the bank industry. The monetary authority has the responsibility for the supervisor of the banking system.
This responsibility is discharged by undertaking both of site and on-set examination of the books of the banks. The provisions among other things cover minimum capital requirements, returns to be submitted to the CBN Central Bank of Nigeria by banks, power of the CBN to conduct routine and special examination and power of the CBN to revoke a bank’s license.
