Abstract: Abstract The determinants of bank lending to developing countries have been investigated in the existing academic literature within the risk-return framework, but the conclusions of earlier research have often been only partial or even contradictory. The analysis of a large sample of individual syndicated credit facilities allows the application of the risk-return framework to study the determinants of syndicated lending to developing countries in a more systematic manner. That is the approach taken in this chapter.
