Abstract
Apart from operating in a tight competitive environment, commercial banks in Nigeria are also
saddled with the responsibility of constant regulatory dictates of the Central Bank of Nigeria. To
overcome these problems, commercial banks in Nigeria needs adequate information
management. The purpose of this study is to identify the impact of management information
system on the performance of commercial banks in Abuja and to make appropriate
recommendations. This was executed through review of literatures related to the topic under
study. The review was guided by the Independent Variable (management information system
measured through Decision Support System, Transaction Processing System, Operations
Processing System, and Office Information System); and Dependent Variables (performance of
commercial banks measured through increased customer deposits and profitability). The review
shows that Management Information System (MIS) tools have significant and positive
relationship with the performance of commercial banks. This study therefore suggests that
commercial banks in Abuja and other parts of the country should embark on effective utilization
of the tools for Management Information System for improved performance. Further studies can
be executed with empirical data from bank’s employees and customers on the impact of
Management Information System on bank’s performance.

Introduction
Management Information System (MIS) is a system used to provide managers with needed
information on a regular basis (Robins & Coulter, 2013). This system can be manual or computer
based even though almost all organizations have moved to computer-supported applications.
Management Information System is the study of people, technology, organizations and
relationships among them (Lemchi & Oparamma, 2018). Management Information System
(MIS) is a people-oriented subject that emphasis on services and information sharing through
technology utilization for the purpose of maximizing benefits from investments in personnel,
equipment and business processes and operations (Osedo & Jemaiyo, 2015). On their part,
Malobi & Nwakubu, 2019 state that Management Information System takes into account
integration nature of information flow as well as the structuring of organization around decision
centers.
The term “system” in the definitions of Management Information System (MIS) means “order,
arrangement and purpose” (Williams, 2007). Maker, 2021 reveals that the major uses of
Management Information System (MIS) include among others: to take more efficient and
effective business decisions used to collect any form of financial data; facilitates collaboration as
well as communication among employees who can access, edit and share documents to ensure
communication of relevant information; used for compiling business reports through its ability to
pull-in and present it in an easy to analyze and format mode; it is also useful to our profit and
business organizations to automatically generate reports needed for government decisions; useful
for tracking customer balances and deposits or credits by the banks for prompt and less risky
transactions; and it is used to manage customer relationships. Despite these enormous benefits,
Management Information System (MIS) also experience some challenges such as lack of
adequate skill or manpower to execute the duties, and lack of adequate tools such as internet
availability and access and the needed technological appliances. But because the benefits of
management information system surpass the challenges, there is therefore a great need to embark
on the effective and efficient utilization of Management Information System (MIS) by all
organizations.
In Nigeria, the banking industry is experiencing very stiff competition. Apart from competition,
commercial banks also have regulatory issues and factors to contend with. Hence the need for
management tools such as Management Information System (MIS). Commercial banks must
have adequate information system that would enable them know and get information about
competitors activities so as to plan ahead of the competitors; information about target market and
customers on how to satisfy and retain their patronage; and information about how to maintain
cordial and profitable relationships among employees and other stakeholders. It is worthy to note
that there are varieties of tools and strategies for executing and realizing the essence of
Management Information System (MIS). These tools and strategies include: Decision Support
System (DSS); Transaction Processing System (TPS), Operation Information System (OIS), and
Office Automation System (OAS). The importance of these tools to commercial banks is the
essence of this study.
Methodology
This is a conceptual study executed through review of literature related to the variables in this
study. A minimum of twenty published articles related to the topic under study were reviewed.
The Researcher utilized the resources in Baze University Library and the internet. The choices of
the studies reviewed were based on their relationship with the topic under study. This was mainly
determined by the independent variable (management information system measured through
Decision Support System, Transaction Processing System, Operations Processing System, and
Office Information System); and Dependent Variables (performance of commercial banks
measured through increased customer deposits and profitability).
Literature Review
Literature review was achieved through conceptual review, theoretical review, and empirical
review.
Conceptual Review
This comprise of a review of what other scholars have done that are related to the topic under
study, or the topics that constitute the independent and dependent variables.
Concept of Management Information System (MIS)
Management Information System (MIS) is a system used to provide managers with needed
information on a regular basis (Robbins & Coulter, 2013). Williams, 2007 states that this system
can be manual or computer-based, although most organizations have moved to computer
supported applications. The term system in the definition of management information system
means “order”, “arrangement” and “purpose”. It also focuses on providing managers with
information. This information must be processed and analyzed data, and not merely raw or
unanalyzed facts (Malobi, et.al, 2019 ). Management Information System is the study of people,
technology, organizations and the relationships among them (Lemchi & Oparanma, 2018).
Management Information System (MIS) is a people oriented subject that emphasizes on services
through technology utilization for the purpose of maximizing benefits from investment in
personnel, equipment, and business processes (Maker, 2021). Organizations need and use
information system at various levels of activities to collect process and store data. This data is
summed and shared by management in the form of information needed to carry out the daily
operations of business. The implication of this is that every employee in the business
organization uses the information for decision making. Therefore management information
system is a web of information that connects every employee in that organization to take related
decisions geared towards achieving the same organizational goals and objectives. Present day
Management Information System (MIS) rely mostly on technology to gather, compile and
present data.
Theoretical Framework
The theoretical framework or underpinning theory for this study is the Diffusion of Innovation
(DOI) Theory propounded by Denning in 2004. The reason is because of the implication of this
theory. The implication of this theory is that there is need to develop new ways to execute
banking and financial transactions or activities. This way is the Management Information System
and its utilization in the banking industry. The operations of this utilization of Management
Information System must be communicated to all personnel of the bank who must work jointly
to achieve the goals and objectives of the bank.
Empirical Review
This section reviewed previous studies executed and published by other scholars whose studies
are related to this particular study.
“Management Information System and Organizational Performance in Selected Deposit Money
Banks in South East Nigeria” was executed by Malobi, U.E., Onwuka, E.M., & Nwakobi, N.P.,
and published in International Journal of Management and Entrepreneurship Volume 1 Number
1, 2020 pages 23-34. This paper examined the effect of decision support system, executive
information system, artificial intelligence, research and development information system and
Management Information System (MIS) support staff on organizational performance. Relevant
theoretical and empirical literatures relating to management information system and
organizational performance were reviewed. The study used the resources-based view theory as
its theoretical framework. The study adopted the survey research design. The population of the
study comprise of 15952 employees of seven selected banks from where a sample size of 384
was arrived at using Partem formular. A five point likert scale questionnaire was employed as the
instrument for data collection. The data generated were analysed with descriptive statistics and
multiple regression analysis. The major findings include that: decision support system, executive
information system, artificial intelligence, research and development information system and
Management Information System (MIS) support staff have significant positive effect on
organizational performance in selected banks in south –east Nigeria. Based on this, the study
recommends updating of management information system and top management support to it in
order to improve organizational performance.
“Impact of Management Information System on the Performance of the Organization
(Profitability, Innovation, and Growth)” was executed by Abdul, G.A. & Fahad, K., and
published in Journal of Poverty, Investment and Development, Volume 21, 2020. The objective
of the study is to show how management information system gives positive impact on the
performance of the organization and how it can increase profitability, innovation and growth of
the organization. Primary data was obtained through a structured questionnaire from 200
employees of 31 organizations in Pakistan. Regression and Correlation test were applied to
measure relationships between the variables. The result shows that there is positive relationship
between performance of the organization and management information system.
“The impact of ICT on banks: a case study of Nigeria Banking Industry” was executed by Luka,
M.K and Frank, I.A, and published in International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and
Applications, volume 3, number 9 of 2021 pages 145-149. This paper considers impact and
trends of ICT on banking industry of the 21 st century. The aim is to ascertain the level of use of
ICT infrastructure and their impacts on customer’s service which invariably determines growth
of banks. A random sampling technique was employed to distribute questionnaire to four
hundred (400) customers of four selected banks in port-Harcourt. The data obtained was
analyzed through the percentage method. The major findings include: ICT has a positive impact
on the productivity of banks employees as perceived by customers; ICT has positive impact on
employee’s innovation; ICT has improved the quality of service rendered by the bank; and
customers are attracted to the banks services because of perceived value of the bank services.
Based on these findings, the study recommends that the banks needs: to multiply their effort or
investment on ICT, human capital and firms restructuring; come up with innovative products that
will satisfy customers banking needs at a reduce costs; and bank should ensure they render
prompt and efficient service. This study is relevant to our study because it examines the
relevance of information and communication technology on the productivity of banks measured
though customer satisfaction.
“Enterprise Resource Planning and Organizational Performance of Deposit Money Banks in
Rivers State Nigeria” was executed by Bestman, A.E and Otabor, M., and published in
International Academy Journal of Management, Marketing and Entrepreneurial Studies, Volume
8, Issue 3, of 2021 pages 26-37. The study investigated the influence between enterprise resource
planning and organizational performance of deposit money banks in rivers state. Cross-sectional
survey research design was utilized. A population of seventy respondents made up of five
managers each from fourteen deposit money banks. A questionnaire was administered on the
respondents. The hypotheses postulated were tested using the Pearson product moment
completion coefficient. The major findings include that enterprise resource planning has strong
influence on the measures of performance; and revenue growth and profitability of deposit
money banks have strong influence on banks performance. The study recommends that deposit
money banks should have plans for the development of human capital through ICT training. The
study is relevant to our study because it explains the relevance of information and
communication technology (ICT) on employees resource development and productively.
“Effect of ICT adoption on competitive performance of banks in an emerging economy: The
Nigeria experience” was done by Dalis, D.T., Obumneke, E., & Anyatonwu, E. and published in
Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences, Volume 22, Issue 8, Pages 81-89 of August 2022.
This study is a synthesis of empirical facts and the descriptive design was adopted for the
execution of this study. The population of the study comprises of 896 staff of Zenith, Diamond,
UBA and Guarantee trust banks located in FCT Abuja. A self-administered questionnaire was
used to elicit primary data. The data obtained was analyzed with both descriptive and influential
statistics while the hypotheses postulated where analyzed with the T-test statistics. the major
findings include that: the internet (WEB) transactions has a significant impact on branch
expansion of deposit money banks; mobile payment transactions have significant effect on the
operations and service delivery of deposit money banks; and ATM transactions have significant
influence on profitability levels of deposit money banks. Based on the findings, the study
recommends that: banks should incorporate ICT into their strategic plans for effective
performance in payment and delivery system; banks should pay more attention to the use of
information and communication technology in all banking operations; and banks should give
regular training to bankers to enable them be aware of current innovations in the use of
information and communication technology.
“Electronic fraud and credit facilitation of banks in Nigeria” was executed by Ogbonna, K.S.,
Okaro, C., & Igwe, E.L. and published In journal of Accounting Information and Innovation
volume 5, number 10, pages 1-14 October 2021. The aim of the study was to examine the impact
of electronic fraud on credit facilitation of banks in Nigeria. The study utilized secondary data
sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria electronic fraud forum (NEFF) annual report of
various years for POS, ATM, WEB, MOBLIE, Internet banking and E-commerce; and Central
Bank of Nigeria statistical bulletin for total banks loans and advances (TBLA) for the period
2011 to 2018. The data was subjected to Augmented Dickey fuller unit root test and error
correction model. The study further conducted BG serial correction test. The major discoveries
of the study include that the pool of electronic fraud affects total credit facilitation capacity of
banks in Nigeria significantly: and that electronic fraud committed through internet and mobile
banking impact on credit facilitation of capacity of banks positively and significantly. Based on
the findings, the study recommends that Central Bank and other banks should work with internet
providers to always identify point of order of online transactions so as to be able to trace the
electronic fraud stars to their point of location. This study is relevant to our study because it
identified the existence of fraud and its impact on electronic banking which is facilitated by
information and communication technology.
Research Gaps
The existing gap for this study is that no study has been carried out on the utilization of
Management Information System (MIS) by Commercial Banks in the Federal Capital Territory
Abuja. The Federal Capital Territory Abuja is the center of political and economic power of the
country with an increasing population. It should therefore be a point of reference for the
utilization of Management Information System by Commercial Banks in Abuja. Also, available
studies did not reveal the application of empirical data on the opinion of bank employees and
customers on the impact of Management Information System on Banks performance. This is an
opportunity for further research.
Conclusion and Suggestion
This study discovered that Management Information System (MIS) tools have significant and
positive relationship with the performance of commercial banks operating in Abuja. This study
therefore suggests that commercial banks in Abuja and other parts of the country should embark
on effective utilization of the tools for Management Information System for better performance.
