INTRODUCTION

1.1   BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

In a modern economy, there is distinction between the surplus economic units and the deficit economic units and in consequence a separation of the savings investment mechanism. This has necessitated the existence of financial institution whose job includes the transfer of found from savers to investors. One of such institution is the money deposit banks, the intermediating roles of the money deposit bank place them in a position of trustees of the saving of the widely depressed surplus economy units as well as the determinant of the rate and shade of the economic development .the techniques employed by banker in the intermediary function should provide them with perfect knowledge of the out-come of lending such that funds will be allocated to investments in which the probability of full payment is certain. However, in practice no such tools can be found in the decision of the lending banker.  Virtually all lending decision are made under creditors on uncertainty associated with lending decision, situation are so great that the concept of risk and risk analysis needs to be employed by lending bankers in order to facilitate sound decision making and judgment. This statement implies that if risk are to be objective assessed, lending delicious by the money deposit bank should be base less on quantitative data and more on principle too subjective to proved sound and unbiased judgment. Furthermore the bank depends heavily on historical information as a basis for decision making.

Apparently aware of the inadequacies of his decision base the lending banker has often sought solace in tangible and marketable assets as security giving the impression that lending against such security is an insurance against bad debt. This makes the bankers complacent his loan portfolio. The increasing trend of provision for bad and doubtful debt in most money deposit banks is a major source of concern not only to management but also to the shareholder are becoming more aware of the dangers posed by these debts.

1.4       SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

It is hardly an exaggeration that the difference between the success and the failure in the banking industry is in the effective management of the banks loans and advance. Efficient loan management it vital to the protection of assets and the achievements of adequate returns to investment. Though much work abound in the literature of the technique of lending. The methods of securing such lending and the pitfalls that await the unwary bankers. By comparison it appears to be very little in point on the subject of loan management and recovery.

A study of this subject will therefore be a addition to the existing volume of banking literature.

Effective loan management recognized that beyond the application of sound banking principles whenever a loan is made, there is need for urgency in appreciating the point when a loan begins to look doubtful in arriving at a decision as to the appropriate action and in taking that action. This will enable the bank to at least obtain full payment including accrued interest or at worst to mitigate the capital loss in the face of increase competition drug banks, future profits are likely to be harder to come by and since bad debts are a charge against profits it is appropriate that we review the methods, proportions and margins of lending to b ad and doubtful debts.

Hence the significance of this study to bankers will enable them to appreciate an appraisal of their lending and control mechanism now that they are expected to lend under tight monetary conditions.

The economy as a whole will benefit from the expected contributions to the development of the economy left with more profits to enable them make the expected contributions to the development of the economy.
