This paper analyzes the impact of electronic banking adoption on financial performance of Nigerian banks through a quantitative correlation study of two leading players. Secondary data on e-banking usage and profitability metrics over 5 years is statistically examined. Results show weak positive correlations between e-banking and profitability but negative links with net interest margins, aligning with mixed findings of past research. The analysis establishes baseline relationships between variables, but further regression modeling is required controlling for other factors to isolate impact. The study highlights need for investigating nuances like revenue and pricing mechanisms affecting outcomes in the Nigerian context. It provides initial evidence on technology adoption effects for a major African economy.
