Financing Nigeria's Growth After The Global Economic Crisis Within The Perspective Of Vision 20:2020 And The Transformation Agenda, Babatunde Lawal
Economic and Financial Review
The paper adopts content analysis method to investigate the underlying assumptions of the pillar of growth within the framework of Nigeria Vision 20:2020 (NV20:2020) and the transformation agenda. The aim is to show how realistic the underlying assumptions are and whether or not the available structure/measures of the financial system would be sufficient to finance the Vision. The conclusion is that the present Transformation Agenda and indeed the Medium-Term Implementation Plans adequately provide for the financing of NV20:2020 if the provisions of the documents are strictly adhered to.

Financial Sector Development And Economic Growth: A Theoretical Exposition, Peter N. Umoh
Financial Sector Development And Economic Growth: A Theoretical Exposition, Peter N. Umoh
Economic and Financial Review
The various literature and studies reviewed in this exposition have underscored the positive impacts of a developed financial sector on an economy. Whilst a few studies showed that finance follows growth, the majority opinion is that finance leads growth. Unfortunately, growth has not led to economic development in many developing economies, necessitating intervention by such bodies as the United Nations, International Labour Organization and United Nations Development Programme. Economists are equally concerned about this development and have, therefore, conducted studies to show the relationship between economic growth and poverty alleviation. They generally agreed that growth is good for poverty reduction.
Supervising Cross-Border Banks: Matters Arising., Kim Norris
Supervising Cross-Border Banks: Matters Arising., Kim Norris
Economic and Financial Review
An essential element of banking supervision is that supervisors supervise their banking groups on a consolidated basis, adequately monitoring and, as appropriate, applying prudential norms to all aspects of the business conducted by each group worldwide. This paper examines supervision of banking groups on a consolidated basis which goes beyond accounting consolidation. It simply implies that there is a group-wide approach to supervision whereby all risks taken on by each banking group are taken into account wherever they are booked (i.e. in the bank or in a subsidiary; in Nigeria or elsewhere).
The Conduct Of Monetary And Banking Policies By The Central Bank Of Nigeria, V. A. Odozi
The Conduct Of Monetary And Banking Policies By The Central Bank Of Nigeria, V. A. Odozi
Economic and Financial Review
Monetary and banking policies are usually the responsibilities of the Monetary Authorities which comprise the Central Bank and the Central Government. In Nigeria, while the Central Bank exercises primary responsibilities for initiating, articulating, implementing and appraising such policies, the Bank's proposals are subject to the approval of the Federal Government. To facilitate the understanding of the conduct of monetary and banking policies by the CBN, it is necessary to articulate the theoretical framework of monetary policy, the CBN-monetary management techniques, as well as the policy measures adopted since 1986 to reform and strengthen -the banking system.
