CHAPTER ONE

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 GENERAL OVERVIEW OF THE STUDY.
Granting of loans and advances of credit is one of the banks services of investment policies. Among the crucial growth process is the adequate supply of credit to the different economic units to carry on their activities efficiently and smoothly. There is therefore the need for transferring of funds from the surplus units to the deficit units of the economy. In this wise, commercial bank plays vital role in the allocation of financial resources of capital formation.
There are many opportunities for profit improvement or maximization through effective credit management since lending of money has been widely known and accepted as an important function of the banking industry (i.e. commercial banks) a function which the industry is better placed to perform in view of its position as a finance intermediary.
The basis principles of lending are the same for all types of credit be it personal institutional credit.
The criteria used to determine the data of credit application to grant or not, have however been the genesis of heavy bad debts in the banking industry especially commercial banks. a bank considers a loan or credit to be a bad debt when the possibility of its repayment is the serious doubt and this doubt many be as a result of the following under listed points.
1) Wrong choice and use of lending principle.
2) Failure by the customer to meet credit repayment as agreed and when due.
3) Customer’s occasional request for credit.
4) Frequent attempt by customer to exceed existing limit without prior arrangement.
5) Overdraft balances always at the peak bad debts do have serious negative effect on the banks liquidity and profitability and if they are allowed to persist, undoubted will lead to bank failure.
It is generally accepted that lending is the most risky function performed by the commercial banks and it is therefore important that lending must be done efficiently.
In granting loans to customers, banks are expected to critically consider various factor’s which should enable them to assess the risk associated with the loan and the willingness and ability of the borrower to pay.

1.2 STATEMENT OF PROBLEMS
The following are problems associated with this study
a. BANK AS FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES: banks find it difficult to operate efficiently in the face of many borrowers.
b. BANKS AS DEBTORS: banks owe the customer at any point in time, a duty to make funds available to depositors on demand.
c. BANKS AS CREDITORS: banks find it difficult to properly assess and identity credit worthy customers which ensure repayment to guarantee equilibrium of funds flow.
d. COMMERCIAL BANKS AS COMMERCIAL OUTLETS: bank owes it as a duty to the shareholder to maximize profit.

1.3 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY 
Commercial banks are general all purpose retail banks. they mobilize deposits of all sizes, both from the depositors and shareholders.
They lend these mobilized funds to willing customers for investment purpose as stated earlier, loans are the most important, most profitable and most risky asset of the banks, not kept liquid due to problems of the loans, banks may be unable to meet their obligations to depositors and public confidence will be lost. These problem loans affect the liquidity of banks, reduce their ability to create deposit, restrict further lending to prospective borrowers, which affect the profitability of the banks.
Therefore, the objectives of the study are:
1. To find out the best ways to manage loans which adversely affects the depositor’s banks and the economy will be a thing of the past.
2. To find out the usefulness of the central bank credit guideline giving to commercial banks
3. To recommend possible ways of making credit policy guideline more effective and beneficial to both commercial bank and their customers.

4. The collection of vital information for lending and the analysis of the proposal cannot therefore be over looked to be less important.
5. It should be noted that the risk element in credit proposal are usually not easy to quantify.
