Economic Recession: Nigerian Banks Prosper While Nigerians Groan by BarometerNG: 8:50pm On Apr 03, 2017
Nigerian banks prosper as United Bank for Africa (UBA), Access Bank and Zenith Bank have all registered big increases in revenues and profits, while the national economy continues to struggle. UBA’s financial report, which was released on 27 March, revealed a 22% increase in gross earnings from N315bn ($991m) in 2015 to N384bn ($1.2bn) last year. The bank’s pre-tax profits jumped 32% to N91bn ($286m).
The bank has successfully expanded outside of its domestic market, with operations in 19 African countries, plus the UK, US and France, all contributing to the positive financial results. UBA has 11m customers worldwide.

A spokesperson said: “UBA’s subsidiaries outside Nigeria are increasingly gaining market share, reinforcing the strong and impressive subsidiary contribution to the Group, estimated at one-third of profit in 2016, from a quarter in 2015 financial year.”

The contribution of UBA’s non-Nigerian operations have contributed to the 20% rise in the company’s share price in the twelve weeks between 1 January and the announcement of its financial results. Nigerian banks are now beginning to join those from South Africa, Kenya, Morocco, the UK and France in establishing operations in many different African markets. None as yet, however, can genuinely claim to be Pan-African banks.

That is one of the many abnormalities of the Nigerian econony.

Banks are making jumbo profits through round tripping of foreign exchange and various illegal charges on their poor custimers accounts.

Banks and the telecoms operators are partners in crime.

Well its not bad. The only thing that pains me is the money ppl are paying over frequent non-retrievable swallowing of atm cards by atm machines of other banks...an act powered by a mindless CBN policy.

That is the beauty of corporate accounting.

Moving data from one column to the other can make a sick company profitable on papers. The same way rating agencies will give a company A+ and the same company goes bankrupt within 3 months. It is a crazy world out there.

How do you mean "it is called depreciation"?
Re: Economic Recession: Nigerian Banks Prosper While Nigerians Groan by Nobody: 9:02am On Apr 04, 2017
why won't they, when everything is charged back to us customers.

Banking as a customer is expensive in this country.

CBN makes policies for banks because for some reasons known to them, Banks are the backbone of the economy.
Every policy made it to make banks profit.

Daylight robbery at its best.


We have eventually become slaves to capitalism.
