Data from both industrial and developing nations suggest that greater market shares and efficiency ranks of small, private, domestically-owned banks are associated with better economic performance, and that the marginal benefits of higher shares are greater when the banks are more efficient. Only mixed support is found for hypothesized transmission mechanisms through improved financing for small and medium enterprises or greater overall bank credit flows. Data from developing nations are also consistent with favorable economic effects of foreign-owned banks, but unfavorable effects from state-owned banks. 2014-05-01T18:38:50Z 2014-05-01T18:38:50Z 2003-08 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2003/08/2483262/further-evidence-link-between-finance-growth-international-analysis-community-banking-economic-performance http://hdl.handle.net/10986/18128 English en_US Policy Research Working Paper;No. 3105 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Policy Research Working Paper Publications & Research
