Changes in economic regime and productivity growth: a study of Indian public sector banks

Article Abstract:

Economic liberalization and banking deregulation can increase the total factor productivity (TFP) under a mature commercial banking setup, as the case of the Indian public banking sector shows. Indian commercial banks first underwent the stage of nationalization, which resulted to about 2% annual productivity growth. However, a larger increase followed of 7% followed after liberalization and gradual banking deregulation have taken place. This shows that deregulation has the potential to raise productivity by driving economic competition to promote increases in efficiency.
