1.2     RATIONALE OF THE STUDY

I decided to write on this topic because of the following reasons;

1.       I have special interest in the Nigerian capital market business of its          significant role in the banking industry. For example, so many   banks are running to the Nigerian capital market to raise funds, so         that they can meat up with the new capital base of N25 billion. As     a banker, I am supposed to know how the banks raise their funds.

2.       I hope that through this project work other people who ar not aware       of the importance of the Nigerian capital market will get to know    about it after reading my work.
