Michał Kruszka-2011-07-28-Wiadomości Statystyczne The Polish Statistician

TL;DRAbstract

The purpose of this paper is to estimate empirically the relations between credit growth and the presence of foreign banks in the East-Central European countries. A sample of 152 banks from eleven countries (Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia) is used in the analysis. The panel estimation technique is used in regressions. The research results show that foreign banks entry can raise credit growth, but it is also connected with some negative effects, because foreign banks can be treated as a transmission channel of turbulence in international financial markets.
