Tiivistelmä: | In this article it is investigated how bank organization shapes banking competition. It is shown that a bank's geographical lending reach and loan pricing strategy is determined by its own and its rivals' organizational structure. The impact of organization on the geographical reach and loan pricing of a large bank are estimated. It is found that the reach of the bank is smaller when rival banks are large and hierarchically organized, have superior communication technology, have a narrower span of organization, and are closer to a decision unit with lending authority. Rival banks' size and the number of layers to a decision unit soften spatial pricing. |
