A study on Hypothetical Mergers for Commercial Banks in the South West States of the USA: An Economies of Scale and X-efficiency Analysis.

Using stochastic frontier analysis techniques, this paper attempts to hypothetically merge banks together from the South West States of America using computed economies of scale and x-efficiencies. The empirical analysis follows two stages, the first computes x-efficiency scores for all 34 banks, fo...

description Using stochastic frontier analysis techniques, this paper attempts to hypothetically merge banks together from the South West States of America using computed economies of scale and x-efficiencies. The empirical analysis follows two stages, the first computes x-efficiency scores for all 34 banks, followed by a second stage which hypothetically merges five new banks based on their economies of scale.
