The business of receiving deposits on current, savings or other accounts;
paying or collecting cheques drawn or paid in by customers; provision of
finance, consultancy and advisory services relating to corporate and
investment matters; making or managing investment on behalf of any
person; and the provision of insurance marketing services and capital market business or such other services as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, may, by gazette, designate as banking business.
Under this concept banks are free to choose which activity or activities to undertake (money or capital market activities or insurance marketing services or a combination thereof) and are expected to comply with the guidelines specified for such activity or activities. Consequently, a bank will be regulated based on the type of activities it engages in. In view of the above, a single uniform licence will be issued to all conventional banks desirous of practising Universal Banking without delineation as to 'commercial' or 'merchant', after returning the old licence to the Central Bank for cancellation. Non-conventional banks like the development and other specialised institutions shall continue to perform their specialised roles.
Thrift Bank A bank whose main purpose is to take deposits from consumers and make home mortgages. Above retrieved from Answers.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A thrift bank does just that - take deposits and lend to consumers; however, a Universal Bank does more than that. A Universal Bank combines commercial banking with investment banking. The Glass-Steagal Act (1920-something) prohibited the two from operating simultaneously under the same company - they had to be separate. The Modernization Act (1999) allowed different banks to merge and have a number of different banking activities under the same name. This is where holding companies came about (Citigroup, Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase, etc). They offer retail banking (deposits), lending, brokerage services, M&A advisory, and underwriting (among others). Hope this helps.
