| description | Abstract.
Mergers have been taught of as a form of corporate development and most organisations use it
as a route to achieving economies of scale and scope amongst others. This piece of work sheds
light on a government induced merger that took place in the Nigerian banking sector and tries
to examine how the share price has performed post merger. We conclude that a country
initiated merger is not the ultimate form of corporate development but rather a market induced
merger would have been more appropriate as the performance of the stock market and share
price has taken a downward swing post consolidation.
Keywords: Merger, Share Price, Emerging Market, Banking Sector.
