ABSTRACT
This study investigates the impact of monetary policy on banking performance in Nigeria, focusing on Deposit Money Banks (DMBs). The research examines how monetary policies influence key performance metrics such as profitability, liquidity, capitalization, and loan advances of banks. Utilizing a mix of theoretical frameworks, including market power theory, efficiency theory, liquidity preference theory, and the monetary transmission mechanism, the study provides a comprehensive analysis of the interplay between regulatory frameworks and banking performance. The Central Bank of Nigeria's role in implementing monetary policies that balance economic growth and price stability is also explored. Findings from this study are intended to aid policymakers in formulating effective strategies to enhance banking stability and performance, contributing to the broader economic development of Nigeria. This research fills existing gaps in literature by providing empirical evidence on the effectiveness of monetary policy tools in the Nigerian banking sector, offering valuable insights for government officials, bank executives, investors, economists, and academic researchers. The study period spans from 1999 to 2024, capturing significant reforms and challenges in the Nigerian banking sector.
