Competition is broadly based on the levels of fees charged, reputation, the range of services and products provided. As the industry consolidates and the range of services broadens, the size and geographic spread of industry players in increasing. Providing a high set of barriers is the capital and regulatory requirements within the banking sector. Entities that want to start up as a commercial bank and/or investment bank or securities dealer face significant establishment costs in order to gain acceptance and meet market reputation. Furthermore, start-ups require up-front expenses in order to establish proper distribution channels. Globalization is high and the trend is increasing. Cross-border sales and acquisitions of banking operations are also occurring, as assets are shuffled in the race to raise capital.

This document will discuss economic concerns of Nigeria. Specially addressed will be the following: Nigeria’s economic outlook, gross domestic product, inflation, and deprecation of the naira. This paper will conclude with a summary of this discussion.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the internationalisation process of Nigerian firms empirically as this is one of the few studies that have taken this approach in the context of the study using seven case firms. As agreed with the case firms and the University of Huddersfield ethics committee, a pseudonym approach is applied to keep the real names of the firms anonymous; the 7 Nigerian case firms pseudonym is ADG, BDM, CCR, DET, ENA, FCW and GAB. In comparison to other large emerging markets and developed economies Nigerian firms are still in an early stage of development as most sectors of the economy are in their infancy stage. The firms’ expansion behaviours both domestically and internationally would to some extent have an impact on or alter the mainstream internationalisation process theories. Three research questions were developed to address the objectives of this study (1) Do existing internationalisation theories explain the internationalisation process of Nigerian firms? (2) How do emerging markets multinationals evolve and expand over time? (3) How do EMNCs internationalise at the early stage of their foreign expansion? With a study design using multiple data collection methods, the appropriate data analysis technique is paramount to enhance the study quality as well as achieve the study objectives.
