Number of Banks Sample Clauses

Number of Banks. In spatial models, the number of banks in the market is typically inversely related to the distance between the lender and the (closest) competing banks. An increase in the number of banks (harsher competition) increases the likelihood of receiving a lower loan rate offers. A decrease in the fixed setup costs per bank (in, for example, Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx (1995) and Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx (1999)) increases the number of banks, decreases the distance between any two neighboring banks, and decreases the loan rate for each bank-borrower distance combination.7 On the other hand, an increase in the number of banks may aggravate an adverse selection problem by enabling lower quality borrowers to obtain financing, resulting in moral hazard and credit rationing (Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxx (1995)) or a higher interest rate (Xxxxxxxx (1990), Xxx and Xxx (2001)). In Dell'Ariccia (2001), adverse selection generates an endogenous fixed cost, constituting a barrier to entry in the industry limiting the number of banks competing in the market. Similarly, a decrease in the fixed-cost component of the relationship-building technology in Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx (2003) not only leads to an increase in the number of banks and more competition, but also results in a retrenchment towards relationship lending.8 The lower entry barrier then leads to sharper adverse selection problems and higher loan rates for the borrowers closest to the relationship lender, but lower loan rates for customers farther away. In effect, loan rates will decrease (increase) more per unit with distance between the borrower and the relationship (transactional) bank.
