This work examined the e-banking application and development in Nigeria with focus on service quality
alongside emerging issues and challenges that affects the development of Electronic banking in Nigeria. To
achieve this objective 51 research questions addressing six parameters of service quality i.e. Reliability,
Accessibility, User-friendliness, Security & Privacy, Efficiency & Responsiveness, Fulfilment; were
administered to 1000 electronic banking users of different commercial banks in Nigeria. Also, we
conducted interview managers of banks in rural area to ascertain their level of adoption of internet banking
and how they have attempted to catch up with their counterparts in the cities. The feedback from
respondents were analysed and the challenges of authentication and responsiveness were identified. We
developed a Service Oriented Architecture for electronic banking which includes a biometric authentication
subsystem and Knowledge Based Enquiry Module. We employed a rule-based fuzzy experts system in
developing the enquiry module and a multimodal biometric enrolment technique was adopted in the
authentication module to address the security and privacy concerns. This work identified the the identified
the security challenges and poor service quality in the existing electronic banking framework and developed
a service oriented architecture to address these identified concerns. It was also found out that the potential
of electronic banking in Microfinance is significant, as it helps reduce the cost of service delivery and help
them reach remote areas where the most marginalised poorer populations in Nigeria live. This work showed
that a properly designed and implemented Service oriented Architecture improves customer satisfaction;
addresses the security concerns on electronic banking transactions and is a veritable tool in achieving
financial inclusion of rural dwellers. It is concluded that a Service Oriented Architecture improves the
service quality, reduces fraudulent transactions on the electronic banking platform to the minimum and
contributes to the achievement of financial inclusion and poverty reduction, which in turn improves rural
economy.

INTRODUCTION
E-banking describes the provision of information about a bank and its services via a home page on the
World Wide Web (WWW). It includes the provision customer’s access to their accounts, the ability to move
their money between different accounts, and making payments or applying for loans via electronic Channels
such as the internet. it is basically the provision of banking services by a financial institution or organization
It gives consumers another medium for conducting their banking interaction, and experience so far shows
that the future of banking is a mixture of “clicks (e-banking) and mortar (branches)”(Rayport & Sviokla
1994; 1995)
With recent advancement in information and communication technology, Banks are not just financial
institutions, they are Technological platforms enabled by ICT to discharge financial intermediatory roles.
Customers now have a wide choice of financial service providers and they would opt for only the best service providers in terms
of quality and reliability. The quality of service plays an important role and is a key factor in ensuring that financial institutions
Service quality describes the comparison of perceived expectations of a service with perceived
performance. It differentiates sought quality and perceived quality. Sought quality is the level of quality
customers explicitly or implicitly demand and expect from service providers. The sought quality (customer
expectations) is created due to several factors – primarily, the expectations are formed during a previous
personal experience of a customer with a service, and the customer is influenced by the experiences of the
other users and by the image of an organisation. Perceived quality means the overall impression a customer
has and experiences about the level of quality after service realisation (Mohammed & Siba, 2009)
• Dealing with increased competition from old as well as new entrants coming into the market.
• Addressing the pressures on the supply chain to deliver their services quickly.
• The need to continually develop new and innovative services to differentiate themselves from the
competition, as having a large branch network is no longer seen as a main source of competitive
The banks leading the current wave of e-banking application are those large (or super larger) national banks
with most of their headquarters are located in larger cities and urban areas (Harris, 2000).
Microfinance Banks has often been credited as contributing to financial inclusion and poverty alleviation
A major challenge is to understand how the adoption of electronic banking contributes to service offering
of Microfinance Banks in terms of reaching to a large population of financially excluded persons and in
Matthaus-Maier and von Pischke (2009) explore new partnerships for innovation in microfinance and find
that the potential of ICTs is significant. It is suggested that ICTs can contribute to the dual microfinance
objectives simultaneously: reducing transaction costs in the service delivery of microfinance (which leads
to contributing towards financial sustainability) while, at the same time, ICTs can help microfinance
institutions to reach remote areas where most of the financial exlcuded and poorer populations in Nigeria
live (which contributes towards the goal of social inclusion and poverty reduction).
The issues of e-banking applications for those smaller and Microfinance banks located in rural and remote
areas have not been fully explored in the published research. Especially there are special or unique
challenges facing those local smaller and Microfinance banks in terms of the adoption of e-banking
applications – how to provide easy and accessible e-banking services to their local customers while having
adequate operational funding to provide those services. In summary, the lack of finance resource and weak
technical expertise have been cited currently as two major obstacles in developing and maintaining e-
banking services for many microfinance banks located in remote and rural cities or counties. As such,
research effort focusing on the development of e-banking application for those local microfinance banks is
apparently in need.
Facing extremely intensive competition from non-banking sector, the banking industry needs to adopt a
more aggressive approach in the development of new e-banking services. For instance, the Fintech
companies are creating platforms that facilitate cashless payments, loan disbursement and collections.
According to a 2016 report by the Enhancing financial Inclusion and access group (EFInA) only 36.9million
Nigerians – about 38% of the adult population- have access to bank service. Over 40 million Adults in the
country, predominantly rural dwellers have no access to any form of financial service. Hence the need to
reach these unbanked people with innovative technologically based financial services.
Larger banks located in a centralized urban area tend to have the greatest incentive to adopt e-banking
services, while in comparison, smaller microfinance banks tend to have a high initial technological cost in
Looking forward, most small banks are motivated to develop e-banking services for potential future cost
savings and gaining a competitive edge in the competition (Timmons, 2000). In summary, the effort of
Services for many local smaller Microfinance banks located in remote and rural areas is currently lag behind
their counterparts in larger city and urban areas. As such, the need to investigate the recent trend of e-
banking application and develop a architecture for its adoption by those local smaller microfinance banks.
Continuing technological innovation and competition among existing banking organisations and new
entrants have allowed for a much wider array of banking products and services to become accessible and
delivered to retail and wholesale customers through an electronic distribution channel collectively referred
to as e-banking. However, the rapid development of e-banking capabilities carries risks as well as benefits
(Hedberg & Taylor 2001). At present, about 90 percent of the banks in the country offer different forms of
electronic banking services like telephone banking, ATM and electronic fund transfer, but Internet banking
is yet to take centre stage. This aspect of banking is still at the basic informative stage (Ovia 2001). Part of
the reasons identified for the inability of banks in Nigeria to take full advantage of this mode of banking
includes lack of adequate operational infrastructure like telecommunication and power, upon which
electronic banking generally relies, due to the inability of the banks to integrate their operations into the
internet development process, Internet banking has not being fully incorporated in the existing banking
infrastructure in the country poses a major challenge in the adoption of internet banking in Nigeria. In
addition, the fact that internet usage in the country has been abused by cybercriminals makes its window
unattractive for domestic banking operations and legitimate international operations. The inherent fear
associated with patronizing internet banking services in Nigeria is evidenced by the growing claim that
fraudsters use fake websites to scoop funds from unsuspecting victims (Ovia 2001).
Banking industry in Nigeria recorded about 82% increase in the reported fraud cases in 2016 when
compared to 2015 and over 1200% when compared to 2014. Despite the 82% increase in reported fraud
cases, the estimated amount loss to fraud was NGN2.19 billion. (NIBBS report 2016).
The main aim of this research is to develop an enhanced experts system model that proffers solution to the
security challenges and improves the service quality on electronic banking platform.
The main aim of this research is to examine the service quality of electronic banking platform in Nigeria;
propose a model that addresses the identified challenges and improve service quality on electronic banking
platforms.
We employed a two-fold systematic approach in this work, in our attempt to find solutions to the research
problem.
In this case the system of methods used comprise case studies of electronic banking application from
different banks in Nigeria (the case studies was selected based on system types and across problem
service quality i.e. Reliability, Accessibility, User-friendliness, Security & Privacy, Efficiency &
Responsiveness, Fulfilment; were administered to a number of electronic banking users, 600 electronic
banking users, across different commercial banks Nigeria, discussion and consultation with electronic
banking experts across banks, the feedback from the questionnaire distributed to electronic banking users
were analyzed, and a postulate of the outcome was examined for theoretical correctness and practical
soundness.
The second component of the methodology involves the conceptual design of a robust electronic banking
platform that addresses the concerns identified based on the feedback of the aforementioned
questionnaire. We developed a Service Oriented Architecture for electronic banking which includes a
knowledge based experts system enquiry module and Biometric authentication module to address the

A user friendly electronic banking service/platform is one that is easy to use and easy to learn. For instance
a platform can be regarded as easy to use if the time required by the average user to understand and use this
system is relatively short. This may also include the simplicity of its services and functions and the visual
attractiveness of the platform. Table 10 displays the result of the survey pertaining to the user-friendliness
of electronic banking in Nigeria. 7 research questions in this category were administered to respondents.

This dimension addresses how safe the users feel while carrying out transactions on electronic banking
platform and the feeling that personal information inputted on the platform cannot be misused. Security
dimension can be defined as "Freedom from Danger, Risk or doubt during the service process" (Santos,
2003). Security and privacy of electronic banking platforms in Nigeria is a major interest of this research.
Eight research questions were administered to respondents on this dimension; the result of the survey is
shown in Table 11. Majority 52% of the respondents disagreed that electronic banking platform provides
security and confidentiality and 49.4% of disagreed that only authorized persons can access their e-banking
account. 48.2% of the respondents believe that electronic banking platform does not ensure privacy of their
accounts. There is an overall disagreement (with mean value of less than 3) for: i) security and
confidentiality on electronic banking platform; ii) Only authorized person can access own account; iii)
Banks website is secure for fund transfer; iv) E-banking is secured for debit card information. While there
is an overall agreement(with Mean value greater than 3) for: i) Internet banking does not ensure privacy of
my account; ii) Banks will never misuse my financial information; iii) Online banking provides simple
operational procedure; iv) You can rely on the personal information remaining in the register.
Security is one of the main barriers to users carrying out transactions on electronic banking platforms. Cyber
attackers identify vulnerabilities and are always developing capabilities to disrupt or threaten delivery of
essential services. Banks should go an extra mile to ensure security of their electronic platforms in a bid to
guarantee safety of users’ funds and privacy of their personal data. This will in turn give users peace of
mind knowing that all transactions will be dealt with in a safe and secure manner (Zhilin, et al, 2003).

This service quality dimension describes the Banks’ willingness to help customer and provide prompt
service i.e. speed of response to users’ requirements or needs on the electronic banking platform. Online
customers expect the response to be quick and efficient when a problem occurs while they are online or
even thereafter. There is an overall disagreement with mean value of less than 3 on the likert scale, for the
following research questions: i) is ebanking secured for Debit card ii) Quick problem resolution and
compensation for problems create iii) Good knowledge and skill of the contact personnel iv) You are able
to talk to a customer service representative over the telephone at all times. The respondents reiterated their
skepticism about the security of Debit card usage on electronic banking platform, hence the need for us to
make the platform more secured. Also the concerns about the quick resolution of problems created on e-
banking platform and the knowledge and skill of the contact person is addressed with the deployment of

Does electronic banking in Nigeria give fulfilment to those who use it?
Fulfilment relates to the perceived usefulness and completeness of services rendered on electronic banking
platforms. There is an overall agreement (with a mean value above 3) for three out of the four research
questions raised under the fulfillment dimension. Respondents disagreed that all issues are resolved online,
this concern is also addressed in the development of our experts system. It is also worthy of note that 71%
of the respondents agreed that Banks charges more online transaction compared to traditional banking. We
believe that this should not be so as customers carrying out online transaction are easing the stress on the
bank facilities/resources as compared to traditional banking users who are overstressing the bank resources.

The conceptual designs for the enquiry expect system is displayed in Figure 1 and its components are
analyzed as follow:
Customer: This is someone who has registered to use the e-banking platform to carry out some or all of
banking platform interface to interact or carryout operations on the platform. Examples are ATM, Kiosk,
Authentication, Authorization and Accounting System (AAA System): This is the security module of
the proposed system. Authentication provides a way of identifying a user, typically by having the user enter
a valid user name and valid password or capturing the user’s biometric feature before access is granted. The
process of authentication is based on each user having a unique set of criteria for gaining access. The AAA
system compares a user's authentication credentials (username/password or fingerprint, e.t.c) with other
user credentials stored in a database. If the credentials match, the user is granted access to the platform. If
the credentials are at variance, authentication fails and access is denied. Authorization grants specific rights
and privileges to individual user. For instance, a user may want to transfer fund from Account A to Account
B, the authorization process determines whether the user has the authority to issue to carry out such transfer.
Simply put, authorization is the process of enforcing policies: determining what types or qualities of
activities, resources, or services a user is permitted. Usually, authorization occurs within the context of
authentication. Once a user is authenticated, it is authorized for different types of access or activity on the
platform. Authorization allows us to ensure Quality Control for different services in the system by making
sure users a granted access only to the services they have right and not below certain quality threshold.
Accounting, measures the resources used by each user and log users’ activity in the database. The data
generated by the accounting module is fed into Planning of the Quality Assurance Phase.
Biometric Subsystem: This sub-module manages the users’ biometric data for biometric verification
during authentication.
E-Banking System: This is the system that provides access for users to banking services over the internet
or other communication networks. It usually has multiple interfaces across different platforms e.g GTBank
bank. It houses the customer data and transaction records. It is usually a Server-Client system or intranet
based system. The Server resides in the datacenter of the bank or dedicated remote infrastructure. It can
Customer Support/Enquiry System: This is the innovation we are bringing to add intelligence to
conventional e-banking system available today. The level of Service Quality offered by the current e-
banking systems is impaired by lack of integrated customer support/enquiry system into their platform
hence our urge to include an enquiry system using a fuzzy-based experts system in the proposed electronic
banking model.

The activity diagram and sequence diagram for the proposed model are shown in the figures below. The
The interface allows the customer/user to interact with the electronic banking platform. The user input their
enquiries into the system, the system processes the enquiries based on the information stored in the
knowledge base and the rules in the inference engine to draw conclusion and give advice. The knowledge
base contains highly specialized knowledge on the problem area as provided by the expert. It includes
problem facts, concepts, and relationships. The knowledge base constitutes the problem-solving rules, facts,
or intuition that a human expert might use in solving problems in a given problem domain. The knowledge
base is stored in terms of if–then rules. The inference engine is the control mechanism that organizes the
enquiry data and searches through the knowledge base for applicable rules. The inference engine is
modelled after the expert's reasoning. The system works with the information inputted by the user, coupled
with the knowledge stored in the knowledge base, to draw conclusions and/or give recommendations.
E-CHANNEL MODULE
This is the system that provides access for users to banking services over the internet or other
communication networks. It usually has multiple interfaces across different platforms – WEB, POS, USSD,
ATM, Kiosk, Smart Phones, Personal Computers, e.t.c it enables users of e-banking platform interface to
interact or carryout personalized operations(enquiries and requests) on the platform drawing relevant
information about their account from the back end of the system - core banking system after been duly
authenticated.
This module is developed to add intelligence to conventional e-banking system available today; to improve
the level of Service Quality offering on the e-banking platform. Expert system is made up of Knowledge
base and inference engine. The knowledge base contains highly specialized knowledge on electronic
banking issues, problem-solving rules, facts, or intuition that a human expert might use in solving banking
related problems. The knowledge base is stored in terms of if–then rules. The inference engine is modelled
after the expert's reasoning; it is the control mechanism that organizes the enquiry data and searches through
the knowledge base for applicable rules. The system works with the information inputted by the user,
coupled with the knowledge stored in the knowledge base and information from the core banking system,
This sub-module manages the users’ biometric data for biometric verification during authentication. It is
the security module of the proposed system; this provides a way of identifying a user. The system is
designed such that the level of authentication carried out on the customer determines the type of service
that such customer/user can access. Typically, there are three level of authentication: use of PIN/Password,
Token and Biometric authentication. Users accessing the platform with the use of Password only are
credentials (username/password or fingerprint, e.t.c) with other user credentials stored in a database. If the
credentials match, the user is granted access to the platform. If the credentials are at variance, authentication
The Core Banking Interface describes the interface between the Electronic Banking System and the Core
Banking System. The Electronic Banking System interfaces with the Back-end system, through the Core
Banking Interface, to draw information on authorized users’ requests and enquiries. The Core Banking
Interface provides transactions briefs to be utilized by the Electronic Banking System to produce
CORE-BANKING SYSTEM
This describes the traditional banking system that is only made available at the branches of a typical bank.
It warehouses the customers’ data and transaction records. It is usually a Server-Client system or intranet
based system. The Server resides in the datacenter of the bank or dedicated remote infrastructure. It can
only be accessed by the authorized users or applications of the bank. The electronic banking
platform/application relies on the information stored on the core banking system to function properly.

The paper explores the service quality of electronic banking in Nigeria. It is observed that customers there
were concerns about the security and privacy of the services, which in turned affect the perceived service
quality.
A model for electronic banking was conceptualised to address the concerns identified based on the feedback
of the aforementioned questionnaire, a Service Oriented Architecture for electronic banking that we
developed includes a knowledge based experts system enquiry module and Biometric authentication
module.
We proposed that the model developed in this work be adopted for electronic banking transactions in
Nigeria.
We believe that the next developments in E-banking will involve new products and services that were not
practicable with the ‘brick and mortal’ banking models. This may include enabling instant international
payments using mobile devices; and tools to help people manage their multi-bank financial portfolio.
With the model proposed in this work we have shown that E-banking has the potential to be a very rich and
pleasant experience, and may provide more opportunities for banks to develop mutually satisfying services
This framework will reduce instances of fraudulent transactions on the electronic banking platform to the
barest minimum and help in achieving the Microfinance Banks’ objectives of financial inclusion and
