It was one of these reasons that the Central Bank of Nigeria directed all Deposit Money Banks in Nigeria to increase their capital base in order to address the problem of general underperformance and develop- strategies towards improving the capacity for better performance. This study, therefore, examined the effect of recapitalization on liquidity position of quoted Deposit Money Banks in Nigeria.
