Abstract

This study investigated the impact of bank recapitalisation on bank performance. The Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression analysis was used for the analysis.

The study posits that profits maximization drives of Nigerian banks have had counterproductive effect on bank capitalization. Also, efforts of banks to maintain quality assets and remain in business normally erode their capital. Strategies to increasing bank capitalization can be used to boost loans and advances to the productive sector of the economy
