A total of N15.7 billion was netted by the five biggest banks in Nigeria from maintaining the account of their customers in the first quarter of 2019, the research team of Business Post has confirmed.

The five bank are Zenith Bank, Access Bank, Guaranty Trust Bank (GTBank), United Bank for Africa (UBA) and First Bank, which our research team tagged ZAGUF.

Some days ago, the banks, alongside other publicly quoted companies, released their financial statements to the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) for the period ended March 31, 2019.

An analysis of the financial positions of these ZAGUF banks showed that the amount generated from Account Maintenance Charges increased in the period under review when compared with the same period of last year.

In the first quarter of last year, the five big boys in the Nigerian banking industry generated the sum of N13.2 billion from Account Maintenance Charges, indicating that the amount increased by N2.5 billion or 18.94 percent in 12 months.

A further analysis of the results indicated that Zenith Bank made the highest amount from maintaining accounts of customers domiciled with them.
