BOOK



An authoritative introduction to efficiency and productivity

analysis with applications in both the banking and finance

industry



In light of the recent global financial crisis, several studies

have examined the efficiency of financial institutions. A number

of open questions remain and this book reviews recent issues and

state-of-the-art techniques in the assessment of the efficiency

and productivity of financial institutions. Written by an

international team of experts, the first part of the book links

efficiency with a variety of topics like Latin American banking

market discipline and governance, economics of scale

off-balance-sheet activities, productivity of foreign banks

mergers and acquisitions, and mutual fund ratings. The second

part of the book compares existing techniques and

state-of-the-art techniques in the bank efficiency literature

including among others, network data envelopment analysis and

quantile regression



The book is suitable for academics and professionals as well as

postgraduate research students working in banking and

finance
