Abstract:
This paper reviews measures of banking efficiency and analyses the efficiency
construct and its applications. We discuss the issues of data availability and
methodological problems that occur when trying to obtain realistic local and
global efficiency indicators for banks. We conclude by suggesting directions for
future research that both inform theory and have practical application.
