Abstract / Description
The purpose of this paper is to examine the degree of concentration and efficiency in the Vietnamese banking system using the structural model. We apply the concentration ratio (CR), Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) and concentration-profitability model based upon the Structure-Conduct-Performance (SCP) and Efficiency Hypothesis (EH) approaches to examine 48 Vietnamese commercial banks over the period 1999-2009. This is the first such study of the Vietnamese banking system. Our empirical results show that the Vietnamese banking industry has become substantially less concentrated, however large commercial banks still dominate the whole banking system. Further, our results do not support either the traditional Structure-Conduct-Performance or the Efficiency Hypothesis.
