Impact of Commercial Banking on Nigeria Industrial Sector

Abstract

This study examines the impact of commercial banking on Nigeria industrial sector using secondary data covering the period of 1980 2018 that were obtained from the Central Bank of Nigeria. The model's estimates were estimated via multiple econometric model of the ordinary least square to determine the effect of commercial bank credit to industrial sector, inflation, infrastructure, exchange rate, interest rate, labour force and bank capital on industrial sector proxied by industrial output. The results show that commercial bank credits to industrial sector, infrastructure, inflation, labour and bank capital have a positive impact on industrial sector while exchange rate has a negative impact on industrial sector but conforms to the a priori expectation. The study also found out that only commercial bank credits to industrial sector and infrastructure were significant in explaining industrial sector growth while other variables used in the study were all found to be non significant in explaining the growth rate of the industrial sector. The study concludes that adequate commercial banks credit intermediation in the industrial sector and government expenditure on the needed infrastructure will enhance the sector performance. by Onwuteaka, Ifeoma Cecilia PhD | Molokwu, Ifeoma Mirian | Aju Gregory.
