DOWNLOAD EBOOKAnxieties about the declining influence of U.S. banks in international markets made headlines, and prompted Congressional inquiries, in the late 1980s and early 1990s. More recently, however, concern about U.S. banks' competitiveness overseas has given way to alarm about the growing market share of foreign banks in U.S. markets. By one estimate, foreign banks now hold nearly 50 percent of all existing commercial and industrial loans made to U.S. businesses. Moreover, foreign banks made these gains swiftly, more than doubling their share of the U.S. market in the past 10 years. Conceptually, a firm can increase its market share by charging lower prices than its rivals and/or by producing higher quality products and services than its rivals. There is some empirical evidence that foreign banks may have employed both strategies, underpricing U.S. banks in some types of loans and offering higher quality service than U.S. banks in some product lines. In competitive markets, these strategies will reduce profits – low price strategies reduce per unit revenues, and high quality strategies increase per unit costs – unless they generate higher unit sales or allow the bank to charge higher prices. Consistent with this, low profitability has been a chronic problem for foreign banks operating in the U.S.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis text focuses on the international banking revolution of the 1960s and provides a fresh historical perspective on the foundations of the subsequent financial globalization. The contributors address four main issues: the revival of London as a world financial centre; the emergence of Euro-banking as a new frontier of growth for credit institutions; the competitive challenge brought home by American banks to their European counterparts; and the strategic response by British and Continental banks.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIncreasing foreign participation and high concentration levels characterize the recent evolution of banking sectors' market structures in developing countries. Martinez Peria and Mody analyze the impact of these factors on Latin American bank spreads during the late 1990s. Their results suggest that foreign banks were able to charge lower spreads relative to domestic banks. This was more so for de novo foreign banks than for those that entered through acquisitions. The overall level of foreign bank participation seemed to influence spreads indirectly, primarily through its effect on administrative costs. Bank concentration was positively and directly related to both higher spreads and costs. This paper--a product of Finance, Development Research Group--is part of a larger effort in the group to understand banking sector market structure changes in developing countries.
