The Risk-Adjusted Profit Function Measurement of Economies of Scale and Efficiency in Commercial Banking

Abstract

dc:description

Whether or not economies of scale exist in the commercial banking industry has been a subject of investigation in a number of cost function studies. The major problem with this approach appears to be the disagreement over which variable(s) would adequately represent bank 'output'. Previous results, therefore, have been sensitive to the output variable(s) used.
