Bank plays a central role in the economy by providing financial intermediation services. To do this effectively, they must have the capacity to lend and expand the balance sheet, and it must be profitable in doing so, this means that there must be demand for their services and the banks are completive and efficient at meeting this while all this may be seen s self evident we observe that the role of commercial banks change over time. Banks are required to channel the funds generated into profitable economic activities through investors subject to the constraints imposed by the relevant regulatory bodies.
          These judiciary responsibilities imposed on the banks three seemingly incompatible.
i. Tasks of satisfying – to ensure the safety of the fund entrusted to it

Recovery of such loans is unlikely and the central bank o9f Nigeria (CBN) came in through special additional regulation. The central licensed banks in a circular letter No BSD/CO/213/VOL/I/11 of November 7, 1990 it outlined minimum requirement for asset classification disclosure, provisioning treatment of accrued interest and balance sheet engagement it sets out the principle on which provision and write-off are made against problem loans.
