Features: This book takes the market structure of the banking industry as the starting point, focusing on analyzing the impact of bank mergers on banking concentration, the intrinsic link between bank input-output pricing and banking market structure, and the effects of bank mergers and increased bank market concentration on bank efficiency. It also investigates the relationship between bank market structure and small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) lending, and finally explores the impact of foreign bank entry on the domestic bank market structure under open conditions. Based on this logical sequence, the book conducts an in-depth and forward-looking exploration of bank market structure theory, providing references for the reform of China's banking industry in terms of theory, policy, and practice.
