About this title

Review:

"Leo Onyiriuba has provided a valuable addition to the scant literature on credit risk management in African banks. The book’s strong focus on credit and portfolio risk management in emerging markets, management of non-performing credit facilities, establishment of sound bank lending principles, and interrelated key chapters make this a benchmark publication offering guidance and technical analysis of exactly what constitutes sound banking practice." --Morton Glantz, Fordham Graduate School of Business
