SHINA PETERS VS JIM OVIA

In 1990, Shina Peters built a house with N20 million naira; the same year Jim Ovia started Zenith Bank with the same amount.

Today, you and I don't have a room in Shina's house but I have an account in Jim's bank and probably you do too.

Shina's house was built in Iju Lagos and remains there till date.
Jim's bank started in a corner and now has over 500 branches in Nigeria, and many international branches.

Millions upon millions transact business in Jim's bank daily.
Shina's house is becoming dilapidated...in 2015, he SPENT more money to renovate the house and bought a Nissan Pathfinder with N10 million...additional liability, while in the same 2015, Jim's bank MADE a profit of N105.7 billion.

Today, Zenith Bank is the largest bank in Nigeria, while Shina Peter might be ashamed to live in his house now.

This is the difference between Assets and Liability. If you buy a car for N20 million today, in 20 years time, you will be ashamed to drive it. On the other hand, if you invest that same amount in a lucrative business or in an asset, It may be worth billions in 20 years. ( Jim Ovia is now worth $980 million dollars, with the official dollar rate of N320, that means he is worth N313 BILLION NAIRA because of an investment of N20 million).

Spend the little money you have today wisely. Some people driving expensive cars today, are not aware that they are driving their future and the future of their children. Some people carrying iphone7 today, may not be aware that they are carrying their future.

When you are young, don't spend money. Invest it.
Every penny in your hand is like a seed, you can decide to eat it, or sow it. When you sow it, it will bear much more seeds later in future.

Let's be wise.

nice write up.

Pls tell them

but all the same it's worrisome that their total asset stood at 1.0bn why their liability 923bn
How can dat be?

Brotherly... deficits or deposits. it still does not change the fact that, their net-worth is in negative! The net-worth is what everyone will consider when assessing the viability or progress of this firm. cool cool cool cool. Give me a comprehensive conviction if i am wrong.

That is likely a typographical error. I believe its trillion(s). Even some frugal bank managers can have 1 billion in their cabal/liability. Bankers know what I mean. Don't forget Stanbic IBTC is an international bank and one of the best PFA in Nigeria. They have more liability(deposit) because they have few structures and the likes. Don't forget, bank count these stated liabilities as assets, because they are used to give loans, investments, etc.

LOL. It simply means a group of companies offering financial services with operations beyond the country (Pan African Spread and other subsidiaries). These were factored in the total asset base calculations.

Hi.
it obviously a mix up, but even if correct , shows a good rather than bad scenario for customers and the bank alike.

what it simply shows is liabilities (deposits from customers) versus it's assets (loans/placements/non earning ownings/BA's, CP's , TBILLS. ..et.c.).

Even if the figures were correct (which they are not), it means that stanbic bank has collected deposits from customers to the tune of N912.7billion (liabilities) and that the value of loans to customers,plus all its buildings worth, plus placecents in t bills,Bankers acceptances , commercial papers, funds with CBN all total up to 1Bn (obviously wrong figure). I know of a single customer of the bank whose loan figure is over N4billion.

But following your conclusion above,it would be rated the best bank since customers are sure that their monies deposited are still intact and not given out to anyone as loans which may become bad and thus make them unable to access their funds when need.
it doesn't work as such however.

Net-worth considers Capital ( shareholders equity and other capital tiers), which is not even mentioned on the post. Thus no meaningful analysis can be made from the snapshot above.

Stanbic is a sound bank in all ramifications and from the view of any sound financial analyst.

You may ask any treasury management banker or any banker with at least 3 years experience on customer relationship for detailed explanations of financial analysis.
Yours faithfuly could also answer more questions you may wish to ask or clarifications.

Whether good or bad, my money will remain with First Bank. Better to do business with bank that has stood the taste of time and with so many government accounts domiciled with them. No matter the politics, first bank can never be affected. Savannah bank comes to mind.

A slay queen can never cook better than a granny who has years of experience.

Please what about GTBank?

I use both banks and GTB and it is only first bank I have found frustrating. Excellent services by all of them but for the theft and fraud being committed by first bank. Why would I be charged for card maintenance fee when there are months I don't even transact with the account. Obviously, they are loosing more customers. @ firstbank, If any of your team is viewing this thread, pls do something about that. Why would an account be debited monthly for several charges even as there was no transaction on/with the account that month.

Gtbank charges too. I guess all banks do the same. It's a norm. Just that the rate may be different across board.

When the current CBN governor used to be an MD of the Bank... Why not!!!

Poor excuse. Two former FBN MDs Joseph Sanusi and Lamido Sanusi were former CBN governors too. The truth is that the fraud in First Bank by many of its executive and non executive directors over the years has hobbled it. That is one of the reasons why the bulk of the bank's profits today go into provisioning for huge non performing loans granted to many of these fraudulent directors and their companies.
