This is geared towards increasing the export activity and reducing to a minimal level, the rate of import transaction as a measure to boost our country’s external reserves. This trend is buttressed by the various policy stipulations and regulation as well, as incentive dished out by the federal government to participant in the external trade sector, most especially the export sector. The owns of this interest by various levels of government is hinged on the need to boost our foreign reserves which was previously depleted by import that swept through the country during oil boom era and second republic .
There is also the urge to restage agricultural sector which contributed immensely to our export earnings prior to the oil era, since earnings derivable from oil export can no longer be adequate derivable form oil export can no longer be adequately predicted.
The aims and objectives outlined above cannot achieved without adequate participation of financial institution and intermediation most especially commercial banks, thus various government policies are usually implemented through that financial institution in the country. Thus a tight monetary policy disfavour a particular sector of the economy.

The word financing relates to the provision of fund when and where they are required for the implementation of economic activities of man. Taken the definition into consideration the external trade financing will than porting the technique of providing fund by various financial institutions, individuals corporate bodies and government that engage in external trade business. This financing function comes in different ways and various instrument abound for the smooth facilitation of this financing activity for and the instruments that go with it, is a function of whether we are concerned with import trade financing or export trade financing both of which falls under external trade financing. For the purpose of the project. Work emphasis will be placed on historical analysis of trends in import and export sector of the economy in past five years so as to the determined how vibrant form of financing available for the smooth operation of the sector. This analysis will be done on the basis of economic needs and aspirations of nation in the relevant periods.

Also in the recent years commercial bank haled been accused of denying financial services to medium level import and export participants by refusing to grant individual who cannot handle loans of up to N50,000 loan facilities for a critical appraisal of their problems.
1.3 Objective Of Study
This research work is intend to bring out the inconsistencies in the external trade financing. Then use the conclusion derived from that research work to propagate some conclusion assertion in the external trade financing activities of the country. And to recommend measure of minimizing inconsistencies in external trade financing in Nigeria
