Ethics


The history of the Institute dates back to November 28, 1963 when one hundred and twenty four bankers assembled at Randle Hall, Surulere and consequently passed a resolution for the establishment of the Local Centre of the Institute of Bankers, London, in Nigeria with the mandate of promoting banking education in Nigeria and esprit-de-corps among professional bankers. Thirteen (13) years after being successfully run as a local center and having gained considerable administrative experience and recorded significant success in training and educating its members, the Institute was registered in 1976 as the Nigerian Institute of Bankers, a company limited by guarantee. But it was not until 1977 that it became operational and autonomous. The metamorphosis of the Local Centre into the Nigerian Institute of Bankers represents a story of particular worth in that the attainment of this autonomous status was a fulfillment of a dream long conceived. Thirteen years of the Institute as a local center, was a period that saw the unflinching loyalty of the early Nigerian bankers to the building of a profession with evergreen offshoots offering shelters to numerous professional bankers.
