CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF STUDY
Risk management in banking is theoretically defined as “the logical development and execution of a plan to deal with potential losses”. Usually, the focus of the risk management practices in the banking industry is to manage an institution’s exposure to losses or risk and to protect the value of its assets. In general banking business is regarded as risky business. Economic theory suggests that there are two economic units - surplus unit and deficit unit - and these economic units prefer to use financial institutions (intermediaries) to transfer the necessary funds to each other. Certainly, this process increases the importance of the financial intermediaries in the economy, but also poses some risks to these institutions. Economic units usually prefer to use intermediaries because of the problems associated with asymmetric information. In order to solve the asymmetric information problems, institutions are recruiting skilled employees and systems, that is why the scarce sources of funds are now used more effectively by units in the economy. Therefore, the funds are channelled to the most valuable projects that are beneficial to the economy. However, this process of channelling funds from one unit to another naturally has some inherent risks within the process. Banks are usually managing those risks are part of their normal operations.
The risk management process in banking raises various questions. These issues highlight the importance of having risk management practices in banking. These matters are:
• “What kind of events can damage banking business and how much damage can be done?”
This question highlights the importance of investigating the activities of the banks that are creating risk or losses and also assessing the potential damage that those risks could cause. Therefore, it can be said that the risk management process starts with the identification of the potential losses or risk and continues by assessing or measuring those issues.
• “What kind of actions should be taken by the institutions in order to manage those risks?”
After identifying and analysing the risk, it is necessary to determine what kind of actions/activities can be implemented by the banks to address these potential hazards. Otherwise, if banks do not address the risks, this can lead to significant losses for the institution. Therefore, in order to have a sound and healthy institution, new techniques have been developed in the modern banking industry to manage these losses. There have been many banking crises around the world in previous decades. Now, many countries have implemented risk management practices to deal with these crises
• “Did the institution make the right decision?”
After a decision has been made and implemented by an institution, monitoring and reporting usually take place. This step is the last part of the risk management practices checking and reporting the activities of bank risk management.
The risk management process can be summarised with the following three steps:
1. Identifying and assessing the potential risk in the banking business,
2. Developing and executing an action plan to deal with and manage these activities that incur potential losses,
3. Continuously reviewing and reporting the risk management practices after they have been put into action/operation.
The overall purpose of the risk management process is to evaluate the potential losses for the banks in the future and to take precautions to deal with these potential problems when they occur.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
In the light of the vital role which banks should play in developing the rational economy in their capacity as vectors of fund for savings investment and employment opportunities. It will be expendient to point out that Nigerian banking system in all its advancement has not succeeded yet in affectively achieving this mission
The reason is not just one of the facts that some banks have failed but there are other problems associated with them that the researcher seeks to address these problems include:
- The loss of public confidence in the banking industry due to the crisis in the sector (Ekezie 1994).
- The short comings of the regulatory supervisory authorities in banding the crisis (Eh bokphA 1993)

3. Crises in the banking industry has led to unemployment which leads to fall in aggregate demand and consequently a reduction in the production level.
4. Banks are central to an efficient and effective payments system in any country with bank failure the payments system would become precarious, as link between the real and financial sector including international settlements, would be greatly impaired this would inhibit the intermediation role of bank and the development of the country (Ojir 1998). This research work will help the management of banks to manage effectively and efficient.
1.4 Research Questions

In this regard the study will describe the present state of affair of the Bank since it doesn’t have any control over the variables, which is the extent of application of risk management tools and measurement techniques of the Bank. Therefore, the study attempts to answer the following questions.
● What are the activities performed in the risk management process at the Bank?

● How does the Bank, identify, measure, monitor and control risk?
● What gaps exist between the risk management system of the Bank and the benchmark theories and principles?
