In other to ensure the validity and the reliability of our data, we therefore subjected our data to a diagnostic test using Descriptive Statistic Analysis, Multicolinearity test, Correlation testing, and Herteroskadaticity testing. Findings from the study revealed that that ATMV has a positive and significant effect on return on assets ROA of banks in Nigeria while , POSV, WEBV, NIPV and NEFV were found to have a positive but insignificant effect on ROA of quoted banks in Nigeria.
