Abstract

cost efficiency

banking sector

DEA window

Hong Kong

The cost efficiency of the Hong Kong Banking sector over the period 2004-2014 is estimated by data envelopment window analysis. A second stage regression analysis finds that bank size and GDP growth are positively associated with efficiency, whereas revenue diversification and inflation are associated with lower efficiency. Stock exchange listing status is associated with lower efficiency but no clear relationship between measures of market structure and efficiency is found.
