It contrasts concepts of economic theory with empirical  evidence to distill optimal policy decisions. The authors study the banking  sector in Mexico, a developing country with a regulated and sound banking system  and an industry with strong participation from global systemic banks. However,  the Mexican banking system continues to have low financial deepening in the  economy. Simultaneously, changes experienced by the Mexican financial system in  recent decades have completely transformed its architecture, structure of  ownership and control, and its competitive conditions, and have undeniably  affected system performance and efficiency. This provides a natural laboratory  in which to answer the questions of scholars, economists, and  policymakers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2015-11-09\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781137465283\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/9781137518415\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 216cm x140cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 197\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47438720696460,"sku":"9781137465283","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781137465283.jpg?v=1775914025","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781137465283","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
