Cilasun, Seyit Mümin; Kırdar, Murat G.; Department of Economics (2009)

Bank competition and banking system stability: evidence from Turkey
Ak Kocabay, Selvi; Özmen, Erdal; Department of Economics (2009)
This study empirically investigates the validity of the competition and stability trade-off hypothesis for the Turkish banking system. To this end, we consider annual bank level accounting data for the 1990-2008 period and compute the most commonly used measures of banking stability and competition. The effects of macroeconomic factors and bank specific indicators including the ownership structure are also taken into account. The fixed effects panel estimation results suggest that the relation between compe...
