ABSTRACT

Sequel to the growing rare of economic activities and the consequent need to meet up with the expanding roles of financial institutions, the equally increased rate of management crisis has equally generated an alarming level of disturbance to the global financial world. The issue of increased level of production and the resultant nationalization of the economy gave room for the level of management crisis being experienced today in our financial institutions.

The promise under which these factors are persuasive are examined by the investigation. These inherent crisis will no doubt continue to contribute to management crisis in our financial institution if not checked.

The second premise is that of technological advancement, which came with it, computer, electronic transfer and so on.

The fraudulent premise, which is an age-long system of grand, still contributed substantially to the level of management crisis in financial institutions in Nigeria.

It is however the opinion of the investigator that the understanding of the dynamics of the crisis is lacking in the financial institutions system the obvious discovery of this research is that the authorities and managers of financial institutions including the stake holders in this sector are involved in the management of crisis rather than being involved in crisis management.

With the increasing rate of closure of banks and financial institutions in Nigeria, I continue that there is no effective tool and machinery for crisis management in financial institution system.

In this direction, the excessive involvement in rivalry, competition instead of comprehensive total growth of all financial institution in Nigeria make their engage in smatter ways of out wetting the others.

This is very unhealthy to the sustainable growth of the institutions.

Moreover a careful study of that the NDIC (Nigeria Deposit and Insurance Corporation) has done were X-rayed and the discovery recommended for better financial institutions system.

United Bank of Africa (UBA) as a fiancial institution has been chosen as a proper representation of financial institutions administration in the country as this is case study of this investigation.

Most outstanding crisis situations will be identified by this research and those are peculiar to UBA in addition to all other general situations in the financial institutions will be identified what has led to the discontinuity and constant instability in the banking sector in Nigeria is not unconnected with the spate management crisis and fraudulent crisis in this important sector.

CHAPTER ONE

1.0       INTRODUCTION.

            Management crisis characterize the Nigeria banking including, Many financial development institutions the imperativeness of management crisis in the Nigeria development financial institutions cannot be therefore be over emphasized. Suffice this to say that the enormity of growth in this sector and the need to meet up with the changing roles of financial institutions have made the development rapid.

Management crisis are bound to be experienced when one examines the changing roles like banking operations and processes, commercial banking, corporate banking, public sector, consumer banking, treasury and financial institutions, credit risks management and so on.

Due to the heavy loss being experienced in most financial institutions a study of the management crisis is apt. Some notable banks have had their license withdrawn, savanna bank plc. Being the most recent. The 2002 annual financial report of one of the biggest banks first bank plc narrated the loss of over 10 million naira. These and more are management crisis dangerously affecting the Nigerian development of financial institutions through the prevalence of management crisis.

1.1       BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

            Financial institutions play pivotal roles in the evaluating of sustainable development anywhere in the world. The need for the study of the subject matter becomes more imperative in the banking industry in Nigeria for as the cheese that lays the golden eggs, economic growth and development of the nation rest squarely on it.

Banks account dominantly for financial institution in Nigeria as a result, a review of the forum of management crisis vehemently exist in banks in Nigeria include the following.

Industrial relations

Poor management techniques

Shortage of equipment

Staff in adequacy

Industrial unrest

Fraud

Ignorance of modern information technology management of change in information technology.

These factors had been the development of financial institutions in Nigeria.

In this era, when the banking industry is undergoing transformation driven by the changing political climate deregulation, the economy use of technology Local and Foreign Competition and increasing customer sophistication. A banking whose ones would characterize these factors had to be selected ie UBA PLC. This choice is informed by old nature if incorporation on Feb 23 1961 with the introduction of mobile banking services in 1963. The bank introduced UBA GARD with 234 branches in Nigeria and America. It has trained 3832numbers of staff in Local and international courses. This investigation requires such a bank that has continued to restructure the earning assets with a selective reduction in aggregate credit volumes and on the liability side have secured a good share of the public sector deposits. The research requires bank whole total assets in 2001 stood at N188 billion. The bank equally won the Euro Money best Domestic Bank in Nigeria. The bank which in 2002 was also named by the new fork based global finance magazine as the best trade finance bank in Nigeria for the second year running, one of the only two banks that won the award in Africa the issues of management crisis in Nigeria financial institutions development are believed by experts to be the people in the organization. Any business organization boost of the people in that organization as it’s greatest assets in out fit. It equally follows that on organization especially a financial institution can only be as good as the people you employs

Therefore, the institution should appreciation the individuals that make it up and recognize and appreciate the value of their participation. It is ironic however, that some institutions lack this giving rooms to possible fraud and unleashing vendetta on the institution by her employees who nevertheless are agitated by such state of affairs.

Its noted by (Ene 1984) “As the organization grows, its human resources must also be seen to grow with it and develop to their maximum capacity”. The issue of uncreative remuneration as been ignored by financial institutions and the collapse of some of them. This gave rise to the sudden realization by new financial institutions develops who now place a very high premium in remuneration making the Nigeria financial institutions highly very attractive recently. The sudden upsurge of emergence of financial institutions in Nigeria is yet to witness a corresponding failure rate of such banks. (Financial Institution) the lack of attractive incentive does not promote the efficiency of employees in the bank because when people are trained, they become efficient on the Job thereby increasing their productivity and that of the financial institution. Such efforts should receive corresponding lucrative remuneration (Double 1999) “It will be pertinent to state categorically that crisis in the banks and other financial institutions have become the order of the day in the past and research has proved that in spite of the increase in the number of banks and institutions lucrative remuneration seem to have stemmed the tide institutions lucrative remuneration seem to have stemmed the tide of such occurrences to a minimal level to the surprise of skeptics”.

3.         Bank distress account too for one of negative effects of financial    institutions development hinged on management crisis because             even the community banking system, some of these banks still     weather the storm and are afloat. Savanna bank plc case terrifies   the incidence of distress which is a purely management problem.

 4.       Complete dissolution of some banks. This Eneh (1984) identified   too as the evaluation effects on management crisis in that the             problem could be due to financial management crisis or an off             shoot of political crisis on government policy objectives like indigenization.
