Ten banks were sampled constituting 52% of the total population of the deposit taking banks in Nigeria as of February, 2018. Secondary data were used for the study and this was collected from the annual reports of the selected banks. Descriptive statistics such as frequency tables, percentages, standard, and deviation minimum and maximum were used to describe the data while data envelopment analysis and panel data regression with random and fixed effect analysis were used for major research questions and hypothesis.The results showed that asset quality management had an overall mean of 215.9678; standard deviations were 1663, minimum and maximum were 0.3868 and l2.888.The constant and coefficient are statistically significant confirmed by Prob. F = 0.0000. Asset quality management variables namely; return on average asset (p = 20304.15; p < 0.05), return on average asset (FJ = -1540.30; p <0.05, operating profit margin (p = 858.77; p < 0.05), net R2 of 0.0742 and adjusted R2 of 0.0144, it indicated that the variables incorporated into the model are fit. it further showed the relationship with return on average asset (p = I.I 130; p < 0.05), return on average equity (p = -0.15000; p < 0.05), operating profit margin (P = -0.17288; p < 0.05) and net interest margin (P = -0.03556: p < 0.05).
