Competitiveness of the Russian Banking System: Cross-Border Aspect
The processes of globalization and cross-border relations between countries have made it possible to carry out work and provide services in the markets of another country. In the conditions of the banking sector, this process is expressed in the branches of foreign banks or by investing money in the authorized capital of an existing bank. In this case, the management process is located in another country. Foreign investment in all sectors plays an important role in the development of the economy. The classification of commercial banks depends on the source of financing of the authorized capital. The article analyzes the impact of foreign investment on national banking organizations. The growth in the number of commercial banks exacerbates competition in the country. Market participants increase their competitive advantages by introducing additional banking services. The banking sector includes the authorized capital of non-residents, so the bank’s strategy is developed by citizens of another country, taking into account national characteristics. While the foreign banking industry is more likely to overtake domestic technologies, innovations increase the level of competition by adapting foreign mechanisms to Russian markets. The purpose of the study is to analyze the competitive advantages of the national banking sector, taking into account foreign capital. In order to determine whether the policy of a foreign bank affects the atmosphere of the national market, it is necessary to study the industry leaders, measure the share and scale of non-resident banks, using the calculation of the Gerfindahl-Hirschmann market concentration index. The results obtained can reasonably describe the banking market, describe the risks and ways of development of the industry, taking into account the need for an investment fund.
