Productivity, efficiency and technological change in banking: empirical evidence from the Chinese banking sector

By applying the non-parametric Malmquist Productivity Index method, this paper attempts to investigate the sources of productivity changes of China’s State-Owned and Joint-Stock Commercial Banks (JSCBs) during the period 2000–2005. The empirical findings suggest that the China’s banking sector has e...
