George O Niyi market for Nigeria export goods national concord June 13 1986 p.6. the important of export promotion especially in Nigeria cannot be over emphasized after the discovering of oil in 1965 it gradual came to dominate the export sector., oil therefore become the single most important item of export. Figures released by the federal office of statistics show that export of all items form the country in the first half of 1995 had recorded about 316,38.49 billion out of this petroleum product amounted to 14,365.9 billion in percentage terms oil exports represented 90.5 percent while other item had a negligible 9.5 percent. As at 19 79 oil accounted for about barrel day at 20.10 dollar per barrel the economy was 96% dependent on oil revenue as her foreign exchange earner. But unfortunately the revenue from oil was never commensurably reflected either on the extent of the job creation and other preferred multiple or linkage on the economy soon the price of oil began to declare resulting form the American International Agency and other manipulation of the organization of petroleum exporting counties (OPEC)oil glut quota sales and continuous price decline because the other of the day within five year (1981-1986). Bank Export Promotion
The price of oil fell form on all time high forty American dollars to an all time how eight American dollars. Banks plays a major role in payment for export. This means of export payment for export and general settlement of international transactions are.

Bank act as a major intermediary for all listed means of payment. The federal government of Nigeria adopted some specific measures to ensure for export promotion in Nigeria.
Some of these are

- Refund of excise duty on domestic manufactures export.
- Exemption form import license for raw materials required for export products.
- Liberalization of import license of raw material required for export products.
- Abolition of export prohibition as contained in finance act No 2 of 1981 except for commodities whose exportation was barred.
- Introduction of export credit guarantee in insurance sinecure during the year 1986 the most recent incentive package for exporter includes.
- Currency intention scheme: Authority to retain foreign exchange earnings has been increased form 25% to 10% presently. The scheme enables the exporter to retain foreign proceeds in foreign exchange and allows part of the funds to be used in expenses related to export activities duly certified by the authorized dealers.

In order to qualify for this facility the actual exportations of the product from the imported input must be computed with eighteen months form the data of importation of the imports.
In various economic development plans of Nigeria specifically three main objectives have been aimed at business.
- Diversification of the composition to the export products especially those of agriculture as well as processed and manufactured goods.
- Diversification of the friction of trade
- Increase in the value of export procedures.
How these objectives has been achieved satisfactorily in any of the plan periods this is more reasons banking services are required and more encouragement in term of incentives must be given to the banks in order to stimulate their interest in export promotion specifically some of the problems attainable in the export sector as highlighted in the furth national development plan are as follows.
On the major export commodities coca performed better than anticipated. Some other crops such as groundnut oil failed out completely form the nation export list while many others like Timba Logs Plywood, plan Kernnel and groundnut cakes where shadows of there past performance. The perform of the marketing brand system of which hope had been placed to resuscitate the nation sagging agriculture exports seems to even made more pressing when it is realized that Nigeria is facing a decline in output or both her mineral and agricultural output.
Exports have been estimated that by the late 19905 Nigeria would not be able to export as much as oil as she does now because by then domestic consumption would have gone up between 1.5m to 1.9 barre is per day. Learning a reductive small quantity for export manufactured goods and still in their infancy and the output of the agriculture sector is still on the decline and meat importantly our central nervous system oil is facing the world oil glut crisis.
