Abstract
The study empirically investigated the effect of the whistleblowing policy on listed deposit money banks' performance in Nigeria. The study employed both descriptive and inferential statistical methods. Normality test and autocorrelation test were carried out on the secondary data used. Panel estimation and Hausman's test were used to choose between Fixed and Random Effects. Returns on assets (ROAs) were used to proxy the performance of listed deposit money banks in Nigeria. The results showed that whistleblowing positively affects the return of assets on banks' performance in Nigeria (β= 0.032949, p = 0.8053 > 0.05). Thus, the study concludes that the whistleblowing policy is crucial in improving the performance of listed deposit money banks in Nigeria. The study recommended that the regulatory bodies ensure strict adherence to whistleblowing policies by banks. In addition, there should be adequate protection for whistle-blowers against job loss, reputation, and proper compensation.
