Abstract: Opening the market to foreign investors is an action which the Chinese government will take under the pressure of economic globalization. However, the impact on domestic firms and market needs to be investigated. This study uses disaggregate measures (foreign exposure index) to analyze how the entry of foreign banks affects domestic banks and the financial markets unlike previous studies which tend to employ aggregate measures (foreign banks number and foreign bank assets share). The results show that the entry of foreign banks has a significantly positive impact on the performance of domestic banks, which is in favor of the process of domestic financial liberalization.
