The Maturity And Security Patterns Of Commercial Bank Loans And Advances: 1963-68, Central Bank Of Nigeria Cbn
Economic and Financial Review
This paper has examined the maturity and security patterns of commercial bank loans and advances during the 1963-68 period.

This pattern of behaviour is observed in a developing country in which commercial banks constitute the main mobilisers and suppliers of loanable funds.
