dc.description.abstractThis project was aimed at identifying the common forms of Frauds and Malpractices in the banking industry, their frequency, causes and the existing preventive measures in operation. The analyses of primary and secondary data led to the conclusion that Frauds and Malpractices were complex phenomena which vary in nature, character and methodology. The findings of this study revealed that majority of the Frauds-stars were banks staff, mostly cashiers and clerks, working in collusion with customers and non-customers. Inadequate supervision, control and staffing were ranked as the most significant causes of Fraudss and Malpractices. Regular balancing of accounts periodical inspection, rotation of Job staff, proper training of bank staff, were ranked high as the most effective preventive measures against Fraudss and Malpractices perpetration. The findings of the research work provided the basis for our recommendations which include: the banks should ensure regular balancing of their accounts; and periodical inspection of branches should also be carried out regularly. Finally, considering the nature, causes and methods employed to defrauds banks and customers which vary with time, it is suggested that further research on Frauds and Malpractices be carried out every two to three years to keep tract of the development in the fielden_US
