Abstract: This paper studies the quantitative impact of the efficiency of lender banks on their client firms' total factor productivity. By using the panel data for bank and firm characteristics including the efficiency of banks, we empirically establish the positive correlation between the growth and the level of client firms' TFP, which generically reflect firm's own characteristics, and the efficiency of the lender bank with high loan share. This implies it is necessary to expand the discussion for the determinants of firm performance to the characteristics of the parties having relationships with them.
