Efficiency Convergence Properties of Indonesian Banks 1992-2007
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper examines the convergence properties of cost efficiency for Indonesian banks for the period 1992-2007. It employs the Simar and Wilson’s (2007) two stage semi-parametric double bootstrap DEA procedure to estimate cost efficiency. Using panel data estimation, the paper examines β-convergence and σ-convergence, to test the speed at which Indonesian banks are converging, towards the best practice and country average. We find evidence that in general the post-crisis structural reform process improved the average level of efficiency and improved the distribution of efficiency across banks significantly. The Asian financial crisis and the structural reform had the effect of slowing the adjustment speed of bank efficiency.

Cost efficiency, Economies of Scale, Technological Progress and Productivity in Indonesian Banks
This study estimates cost efficiency, scale economies, technological progress and productivity growth for Indonesian banks over the period 1993-2000. Overall the cost efficiency of all banks during this period was 69.82%. However, on average the efficiency of banks prior to the Asian crisis and after the Asian crisis were 79.67% and 53.40% respectively. Moreover, the results also indicate that ...
متن کاملEfficiency and Convergence in the Jamaican banking sector 1998-2007
Deregulation, re-regulation and continuing globalisation embody an imperative that banks increase efficiency to survive. We employ non-parametric bootstrap DEA to measure technical efficiency among Jamaican banks between 1998 and 2007. In addition, we test for conditional convergence to identify pointing variables for technical efficiency. Overall, the results suggest that there has been a tend...
متن کاملBanking Deregulation in Indonesia
In late 1988, the Indonesian government adopted a number of reforms aimed at deregulating the country's banking sector.' Since the reforms, Indonesia's banking system has been undergoing a transformation from an inefficient system dominated by a relatively small number of state-owned banks, to a more volatile system, in which competition among state and privately owned banks is encouraged.' Thi...
متن کاملRobust Non-parametric Quantile Estimation of Efficiency and Productivity Change in U.S. Commercial Banking, 1985–2004
This paper uses a new non-parametric, unconditional, hyperbolic order-α quantile estimator to construct a hyperbolic version of the Malmquist index. Unlike traditional non-parametric efficiency estimators, the new estimator is both robust to data outliers and has a root-n convergence rate. We use this estimator to examine changes in the efficiency and productivity of U.S. banks between 1985 and...
متن کاملEfficiency and risk convergence of Eurozone financial markets
This paper discusses beta and sigma convergence of commercial, savings, and cooperative banks in the Eurozone from 1999 to 2012. For this purpose, concepts of the growth and efficiency convergence literature are consulted and GMM, fixed effects models, and OLS are applied. Convergence is analyzed by calculating two efficiency metrics – data envelopment analysis (DEA) and stochastic frontier ana...
