Abstract
Customer loyalty is seen as very important in corporate organisation because it is cheaper to retain
customer than getting new one. This paper examined how perceived market risks and customer
satisfaction predict loyalty in the Global System of Mobile (GSM) telecommunications in Nigeria in
the perspective of mobile phone users in Lagos state. The study examined financial and functional
risks as well as customer satisfaction as predictors of customer loyalty. Cross-sectional survey
research as an aspect of descriptive design was adopted in conducting the study. The subscribers'
base in Lagos state is put at 19,417,181 by National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) in 2019 and 800
subjects were used in collecting information that was processed using descriptive statistics, multiple
regression statistics. Results show that there was a statistically significant relationship between
financial risk, functional risk, and satisfaction on customer loyalty. It was concluded that marketers
in the GSM industry should formulate and implement marketing strategies that will focus on
mitigating financial and functional risk and enhance customer satisfaction. The study recommended
that strategies should be formulated to encourage customer patronage and loyalty.
