Specialization in Bank Lending: Evidence from Exporting Firms
This paper develops an empirical approach for identifying bank specialization in export markets. Combining loan and shipment data for all exporters in Peru, we find that all banks have abnormally large and persistent loan portfolio exposures to at least one export destination market. Specifications that saturate all bank-time and firm-time variation show that firms that expand exports to a coun...
متن کاملDoes Bank Lending Affect Output? Evidence From the U.S. States
This paper uses a panel of state-level data to test whether changes in bank loan supply affect output.

We argue that this phenomenon can be explained by the risk-shifting incentives of banks and discover that banks with low capital-to-asset ratios and low franchise value chose high-risk assets such as real estate loans. Unli...
