UNN student commits suicide this morning
A student from the university sent me a mail about what happened in their school early this morning. The students of University of Nigeria, Nsuka, woke up to find one of their own hanging from a rope in an unfinished Franco building beside the hockey pitch in their school. Roommates of the dead student said he left the room around 2am this morning and they thought he had gone to study, only for his corpse to be found dangling from a rope this morning. He's a 3rd year Physics and Astronomy student in his early 20's. A purported suicide note which read, "The controversy is over" was discovered near him.

Wish someone had reached out to him before this happened. May his soul rest in peace...amen.

Two more banks have joined the queue to buy HSBC Pakistan operations reflecting the good health of local banks despite ongoing global financial crisis
This is amazing for many bankers that Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC), which is one of the largest global banks, is in difficult situation while Pakistani banks find it profitable to make more investment and enhance their capacity.
The HSBC is making effort to shorten its global operations for improving its health.
Banking sources said the State Bank had yet not granted permission to any interested party for conducting due diligence of HSBC.
“Habib Bank and MCB Bank could be serious candidates for buying of HSBC Pakistan operations as both have strong balance sheets with high profits,” said a senior banker.
Banking sources said the United Bank, which is also interested in HSBC, had yet not approached the State Bank for due diligence.
The HBSC move to quit Pakistan could weaken the confidence of other foreign banks earning meager profits in Pakistan as the five big local banks pocketed more than 84 per cent of entire banking industry profit in the last year.
A senior Pakistani banker said the HSBC decision of leaving the country was because of two reasons. Firstly, the bank was in the process of restructuring its global operations in a bid to minimise the impact of global financial crisis; secondly, Pakistani economy had been failed to emit positive signals for its recovery during the last four years.
He said the plunging foreign direct investment and rising outflows from equity market were disappointing for the foreign banks.
Furthermore the government policies practically harmed the banking industry. Being the largest borrower of the banking system the government has replaced the banking services through banking investment in government papers.
The financial crisis which began from United States in 2007 and spread all over the world particularly hit the European banking system, could hardly damaged the profitability of banks in Pakistan.
“The reason is clear that banks in Pakistan mobilised deposits through their large networks which the foreign banks cannot do with small presence while they pay negative return to depositors by keeping most profits with them,” said Mohammad Imran, a banking expert.
He said the foreign banks may return to Pakistan only when large global banks succeed to overcome the still prevailing financial crisis.
Foreign banks have been increasing their presence in the economies like India and China as both the offer better potential for growth and earnings
Investors are now Await More Banks Earnings
Analysts argued that the anticipated flurry of results from the banks, would determine the direction of the stock market as well as pattern of investment in money market windows in the second quarter of the year.
Zenith Bank had last Friday reported gross earnings of N244 billion, showing an increase of N26.8 per cent above the N192.49 billion posted in the 2010. Its profit before tax and profit after tax rose by 21 per cent and 18 per cent from N50.03 billion to N60.7 billion and from N37.41 billion to N44.2 billion respectively.
A tentative timetable on the anticipated full year results of some banks obtained by THISDAY, showed that while the results of Diamond Bank Plc is expected to be announced to the market by the end of this month, that of GTBank Plc was currently awaiting the Central Bank of Nigeria’s approval and could be released this week.
While the timetable revealed that United Bank for Africa Plc could release both its full year and first quarter 2012 results by first week of April, First City Monument Bank’s full year results would also be announced before first week in April.
Generally, experts at Renaissance Capital (RenCap) predicted positive earnings from the industry.
Commenting on GTBank’s anticipated results, RenCap, forecast net loan growth of 16 per cent for the year.
RenCap explained: “On the cost side, GTBank recorded muted growth in the first nine-month of the year with costs up 5 per cent. We are looking for a similar trend to be maintained, resulting in a cost/income ratio of 46 per cent, marginally down from the 47 per cent at during the nine month of 2011 and 700 basis points below the 53 per cent recorded at full year 2010.
“We expect a cleaner loan book, relative to full year 2011, to result in a lower impairment cost ratio of 1.6 per cent versus the 2.3 per cent we forecast for full year 2011. Bottom line, we expect healthy earnings growth of 47 per cent which will include the one-off from the sale of non-core businesses.”
It also showed that while Fidelity Bank Plc and Access Bank may also announce their results either this month or early April, Skye Bank before the end of March, that of First Bank of Nigeria Plc may be available on April 17th.
