This study examined the effect of e-banking income, fee income, and firm size on market value added of Deposit Money Banks in Nigeria. The eight banks categorised by Central Bank of Nigeria in 2014 to be Domestic Systematically Important banks were selected using the purposive sampling technique. Data collected from the annual reports and accounts and the Nigerian Stock Exchange website respectively for a period of 11 years (2008-2018) was used. The descriptive statistics and econometric analysis were employed using the Panel Data Analysis method. Findings from the study revealed that e-banking income and fee income each has a significant positive effect on market value added of DMBs in Nigeria. The study recommends that banks in Nigeria should further develop its internet and other electronic platforms that can improve its income from e-banking operations since e-banking income is shown to be a strong and emerging component that boosts banks' performance. Larger and investment-oriented banks should focus on increasing their share of interest income to become more stable.
