Abstract
This study investigated the effect of non-performing loans on financial performance of listed
deposit money banks in Nigeria. Secondary data was obtained from 2012-2023 and the study
population comprised all listed deposit money banks, out of which 14 were sampled. Panel
data obtained were analyzed using descriptive, regression diagnostic and inferential statistical
tools. The fixed random effect panel regression result revealed that non-performing loans (tvalue = -3.02; p-value = 0.003 < 0.05%) significantly influence financial performance of the
listed deposit money banks in Nigeria. The study recommends that management of deposit
money banks should be more equipped with the right skills and experience in ensuring safe and
smooth use of provision of loans losses. The study contributes to knowledge by showing that
non-performing loan significantly affects performance of deposit money banks in Nigeria. In
addition, future studies may consider extending data till 2024 as well as investigating how
investments and cash flow decisions can mediate in the relationship between credit risk
management and financial performance and value of deposit money banks in Nigeria.
