More than two hundred disclosure items were examined.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHe concludes that the size of banks, bank profitability, presence of international subsidiaries, and the financial expertise of board members significantly affect the disclosures made.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe bigger and more profitable a bank is--and the more financial background board members have--the more information Nigerian banks typically disclose to stakeholders. As a result, banks in Nigeria should grow their balance sheets and profitability for enhanced disclosure, and the government should create an enabling environment.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhether you're an investor, board member at an international bank, bank regulator, lecturer or student, you'll find this book on banking a compelling read.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 158\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.37 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 06, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45137237246087,"sku":"9781532014260","price":15.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/gbsJV5WQ3z9781532014260.webp?v=1783230204","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/corporate-disclosure-in-the-banking-industry-evidence-from-nigeria-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
