Macroprudential Regulation and Bank Performance: Evidence from India

Saibal Ghosh

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: Employing data on Indian banks for 1992-2012, the article examines the impact of macroprudential measures on bank performance. First, it finds that state-owned banks tend to have lower profitability and soundness than their private counterparts. Next, it tests whether such differentials between state-owned and private banks are driven by macroprudential measures; it finds strong support for this hypothesis.
