Abstract

Between 2000 and 2009, the Nigerian banking industry experienced significance restructuring and intervention by the monetary authority among which is the introduction of corporate governance. This paper attempts to investigate corporate governance and effective bank performance in Nigeria using secondary data from Central Bank Statistical Bulletin between 1993-2012. Using a simple regression of the ordinary least square method, a causal relationship between bank loan advances and bank asset was established. The paper concludes that corporate governance has a significant positive influence on bank performance in Nigeria.
