<p>This study investigated the impact of treasury management practices on financial performance of the banking sector in Nigeria.

The study used secondary data extracted from annual reports of quoted deposit money banks (DMBs) in Nigeria. Panel data analysis was utilized. Descriptive statistics, correlation matrix and ordinary least square (OLS) were employed.
