The following paper emphasizes the need to deepen the understanding of the notion of banking risk management by explaining the significant risks the bank encounters during financial exercises as well as their additional entries. The study of the paper will focus on UniCredit Bank during the years 2014 and  2015 on all types of risks, in which we will provide comprehensive data on how the UniCredit Bank management applies its risk policies.

Credit risk management is central to the success or failure of a banking institution because banks earn the greatest quantum of their interest income from interest on loans which represents a critical component of a bank’s profitability. Therefore, any carelessness with regard to credit risk management automatically results to creating huge nonperforming loans which often prepares the grounds for bank distress or failure. In the 1990s and specifically in 1995, 50 percent of 120 banks became technically distressed, as they were characterized by poor management and weak liquidity ratio. For example, in 1995, the ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans was about 33 percent compared to about 5 percent in 2015, and the average liquidity ratio of banks in 1995 was 0.49, against 58.18 in 2015. Also the loans, to deposit ratio in 1995 was 58.4 and 73.21 in 2015, while the number of banks with average liquidity ratio of less than 30 percent was 50 in 1995 against 1 in 2015. Distress persisted in the Nigerian banking system in the 1990s with dwindling profitability and the erosion of shareholders’ equity. In 1995, the adjusted shareholders funds was – N8791.1million against N3,240 billion in 2015, while the capital to total risk weighted asset ratio was about 67.18 percent in 1995 and only about 17.66 percent in 2015. In 1995, the ratio of nonperforming loans to shareholders’ funds was about 496 percent against about 13 percent in 2015. These major performance indicators showed that there was improved credit risk management and bank management effectiveness after 1995 until 2015. The expo-facto research design was employed for the study and the result showed strong positive relationship between credit risk evaluation management and bank management effectiveness. The study was not exhaustive, and further research could examine the relationship between regulatory efficiency and the performance of deposit money banks in Nigeria. The board of directors of banks should always take measures to avoid lending arrangements over and above the repayment capacity of borrowers to reduce the creation of nonperforming loans.

Abstract. The article explore the theoretical aspects of banking risk management, its purpose, objects, subjects and advantages are singled out. Effective banking risk management should be considered as the main task of banking institutions in their development. From this research of theoretical foundations of banking  risk management, we consider it а new direction of scientific  research in Ukraine, so the theoretical and methodological developments of these problems are  relevant today. In order to solve these problems, we propose to distinguish between «management of banking risks» and «banking risk management». In the research of the theoretical foundations of banking risk management, the interpretation of these basic concepts was proposed. Consequently, the authors proposed defined «management of banking risks» as a process that includes methods and techniques for identifying, assessing, monitoring, controlling and forecasting bank risks, in order to achieve the main objectives of the banks. And «banking risk management» defined as а set of principles, means and forms of management of the bank’s activities related to risks. For the development of the theory of banking risk management the authors proposed identified and characterized his subjects and objects. It is determined that the object is risks of banks and economic relations at risk, and the subject is the employees of the structural units, which, through the application of knowledge, skills, information and financial resources, participate in the management of banking risks. In addition, the advantages of effective risk management in the activities of banks are determined. The lack of research on the theoretical aspects of banking risk management can lead to deepening of theoretical and methodological problems and may negatively affect in the practical activities of banks. Keywords: management of banking risks, banking risk management, bank, subjects and objects of banking risk management. JEL Classification G21, G28 Formulas: 0; fig.: 1; tabl.: 0; bibl.: 12.
