Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the performance of financial institutions and competition within the financial systems. This brought back, both on the policy agenda and in the academic literature, the discussion of the sensitive relationship between macroeconomics and the commercial banks’ performance, which are seen as the most important financial institutions for the local economies. Against the backdrop of highly globalised economies and integrated cross-border supply chains, the lockdown measures imposed in the majority of countries and the containment measures adopted to limit the spread of the virus have brought the global economy to a sudden stop, making this crisis truly different. How do the pandemic and the implementation of prudential policies and government interventions impact the bank efficiency and risk management?
This Special Issue will publish papers in various areas related to bank efficiency and risk management in a pandemic and negative interest rates environment. Possible topics for the proposed Special Issue that could be addressed include the following: (1) banks’ efficiency in the pandemic; (2) pandemic and risk management; (3) factors affecting bank efficiency and risk management during the COVID-19 pandemic; and (4) the impact of regulatory changes on the banks’ efficiency and stability. Papers with rigorous empirical research methods and practical applications in the EU, US, and other areas’ banking sectors are most welcome.
