Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This study examines the relationship between bank distress and economic growth in Nigeria. The banking sector plays a crucial role in the economy by facilitating financial intermediation and resource allocation. However, when banks are distressed, it can have significant negative effects on economic growth. Using time series data from 1986 to 2019, this study employs the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) bounds testing approach to investigate the long-run and short-run dynamics between bank distress and economic growth. The results indicate a negative relationship between bank distress and economic growth in Nigeria, implying that periods of bank distress are associated with slower economic growth. The study finds that bank distress variables such as Non-Performing Loans (NPLs), Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), and Liquidity Ratio (LR) have a significant impact on economic growth. Specifically, an increase in NPLs and a decrease in CAR and LR are found to be detrimental to economic growth in Nigeria. Furthermore, the study explores the transmission channels through which bank distress affects economic growth. It is observed that bank distress can lead to credit rationing, reduced investment, and lower productivity, all of which can hinder economic growth. Additionally, bank distress may erode depositor confidence, leading to bank runs and financial instability, which further exacerbate the negative impact on economic growth. Policy implications arising from this study suggest the importance of maintaining a sound and stable banking sector to support economic growth. Strengthening bank supervision, enhancing regulatory frameworks, and improving risk management practices are crucial in preventing and mitigating bank distress. Addressing the root causes of bank distress, such as poor corporate governance, weak risk management, and inadequate capitalization, is essential for promoting a healthy banking sector that can effectively contribute to sustainable economic growth in Nigeria. Overall, this study contributes to the existing literature by providing empirical evidence on the relationship between bank distress and economic growth in Nigeria. The findings underscore the importance of addressing bank distress to ensure a stable financial system that can support long-term economic development and prosperity.
