Some people here will never read with sense of understanding before cooking up criticisms. He clearly put it that it is not legal for you as a staff to do some things. Some still indulge in some, but it's not allowed. that does not false the write up. I work in a bank. OP write up is true.....

u have no idea about what you are saying.....those who indulge in having many accounts are doing it at their own risk and it is illegal. as for business I wrote it should not interfer with the bank job, where in the right up did you see thou shall not do any other business? your comments about marriage truly exposed your ignorance on banking matters.

YOU CANNOT MARRY YOUR CO-WORKER: This may not be news to you anyway, relationships are permitted among employees, albeit with slight oversight; but when it is tilting towards marriage, one of the pairs may have to consider resignation. There is nothing to worry about this buddy, it’s all about protecting our money, you never can tell what happens between husband and wife because the bond is so strong that the bank cannot contain.



FALSE. U can marry in Keystone bank and still remain in the bank with your partner. Your sibling can also work in the same bank with you. This policy does not apply to all banks sir.

Like I pointed out, the MARRIAGE issue is not applicable in all banks. It is very much allowed in Keystone. Both of you can marry and remain in the bank.

The Nigerian banking work environment has recently gained the attention of powers that be, people are beginning to ask questions about some actions and in-actions of top managements in commercial banks especially policies that has to do with welfare of its employees and unrealistic targets placed on them.

Well this article is not about “targets”, as that has to be a story for another day. This is about some of the practices that happens in the bank that you never knew exists. It is true that every organization out there have rules of engagement which employees must abide by and to the best of my knowledge this is standard practice.

But why would you be interested to know what happens in the bank behind the scene in the first place? Let’s say you gave your neighbor some good amount of money to keep, and all of a sudden your beloved neighbor started upgrading his kitchen aroma, and you notice some change in the standard of living, wouldn’t you get worried about your money? Yes you do want to know what happens behind the banking hall! We are talking about people whose custody our money lies.

In this piece am going to enumerate some of the practices both written and unwritten policies which guides bankers in the discharge of their duties. Anyway since our lawmakers are investigating bank managements, I will help them speed up the process for quicker result (pun intended).

The following are my personal experience over the years in the industry:

BANKERS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO OWN ACCOUNTS IN OTHER BANKS: Bank employees are not allowed to operate bank accounts in other commercial banks, this is to enable them know everything about your financial standing. If you previously own accounts before your appointment, it is expected that you declare them. But make sure you are not making false declaration or else the CCT will be your guest (pun intended).

Where is the pun there? You people just love using words you have no understanding of the meaning. Aside that, very informative write up.

Happy birthday in arrears. Where cake? angry

I think the Op should have said some banks, but looking at it holistically these rules work in lots of banks.
He clearly stated that it's the standard, it doesn't mean there are no exceptions or rules are not broken. After all, how many bankers can look their Internal control in the face and admit having numerous accts or side businesses?
Re: Revealed: Practices In Nigerian Banks That Will Shock You by saintgwizard(m): 5:11pm On Nov 20, 2015
Not just banking. Most of these rules apply in other sectors.
