About this document

Globalization Impact on Bank Performance by Maria Awad is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This article examines the impact of banking sector globalization on bank performance in 169 countries from 1998-2013. The author finds that greater banking sector globalization reduces bank profits and costs, reflecting increased competition and reduced information problems. However, in emerging markets and countries with over 50% foreign banks, greater globalization positively impacts profits. The findings suggest policies are needed to reduce information problems in host banking markets.
