Internet banking is the use of internet in order to provide services like on line transfer, payment of bills and any other on line banking activity. Internet banking can be grouped into four major classes;
a)Telephone banking: this is a form of internet banking which is used by customers in order to perform or carry out retail transactions by calling phone communication units which are linked to an automated system of bank.

In this study, we set out to empirically evaluate the impact of internet banking on the profitability of Commercial Bank of Diamond Bank Plc. In Nigeria. The study was conducted to ascertain how internet banking affects Diamond Bank Plc in Nigeria.
Secondary data were used; the source of data included Diamond Bank Plc. annual financial statement (2017). In order to achieve the objectives of the study, three econometric models were formulated using the Ordinary Least Square (OLS). In the first model, return on assets was regressed on internet banking service expenses. In the second model, return on equity was regressed on internet banking service expenses and in the third model, net income margin was regressed on internet banking service expenses.
The major findings of the study are summarized below:
- The result has established a positive and significant relationship between the log of internet banking services expenses (IBSE) and return on asset (ROA). This has been found to be consistent with the theory.
- The result also revealed a positive and significant relationship between log of internet banking services expenses (IBSE) and return on equity (ROE). This has been found to be consistent with the theory.
- Lastly, the result also revealed a positive and significant relationship between log of internet banking services expenses (IBSE) and net income margin (NMG). This has been found to be consistent with the theory.
Policy Recommendations
