Banking area possesses a significant spot in each economy and is one of the quickest developing sectors in India. The challenge is very high and tough from the worldwide player’s i.e. International banks. On the counter part, both public and private banks are also facing strong competition among themselves to reach the targeted audience. But the worrying factor is Non performing assets are also increasing simultaneously with core business. The result is mergers in the banking sector in order to reduce the NPA. The most recent and largest merger in the history of banking industry took place on April 1, 2017 i.e., State bank of India and its associates banks. And, now the govt. of India announces India’s biggest and largest mega banks merger on august 30, 2019, i.e., merging of 10 public sector banks into 4 large banks. These banks are oriental bank of commerce and united bank of India merging with Punjab national bank; Syndicate bank with Canara bank; Andhra bank and corporation bank merging with Union bank of India; and Allahabad bank merging with Indian bank; This merger will bring nearly a half yearly of all outstanding loans in Indian’s banking sector. This big bank merger will be a good move from the central govt. to reach $5 trillion economy in next 5 years. This merger will help to give some boost to the Indian economy, which is suffering with high rate of NPA’S. In this research paper an attempt is made to know the impact of banks performance after merger will really give acceleration to the economic growth rate or not.

This study analyses the impact of competition on liquidity creation by banks and investigates the dynamics between diversification, liquidity creation and competition for banks operating in India during the period from 2005 to 2018. Using the broad and narrow measures of liquidity creation, an inverse relationship is determined between liquidity creation and competition. The study also indicates a trade-off between pro-competitive policies to improve consumer welfare and the liquidity-destroying effects of competition, and it highlights how diversification affects liquidity creation. Highly diversified banks in India create less liquidity compared with less-diversified banks, both public and private. The liquidity-destroying effects of competition is intensified among highly diversified private banks, which suggest that diversification has not moderated the adverse impact of competition.

The economic development of any nation hinges on the health of its financial system. In recent years, the health of the Ghanaian Banking sector has been affected severely as a result of high levels of non-performing loans (NPLs), which has been identified as a major threat to the overall profitability and survival of banks. To minimize the impact of NPLs on the financial sector, key stakeholders such as the government, bank officials and regulators are working hard in that regard. However, any policy response aimed at dealing with the high rate of non-performing loans first requires the understanding of the underlying determinants of NPLs. Against this backdrop, this paper apply panel co-integration techniques to investigate the determinants of credit risk (NPLs) in the banking sector of Ghana.  We use NPL as a proxy to measure credit risk and assess how it is influenced by macroeconomic and bank-specific factors. A balanced panel data of 16 universal banks in Ghana from 2010 to 2016 has been analyzed using Panel co-integration techniques such as Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) and Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS). Our result shows that growth in the economy, measured by Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has significant influence on the NPLs of banks in the long-run. The results further revealed that capital adequacy, profitability and liquidity of banks are significant predictors of NPLs. However, our results suggest that bank size, inflation and interest rate have statistically insignificant influence on the NPLs of Ghanaian banks. The study recommend, among others, that whereas it is important for government and policymakers to work to improve macroeconomic outcomes, banks should also improve their capital adequacy, profitability, and efficiency position as these bank-specific interventions could significantly improve credit quality and minimize NPLs.

Subject Outlook for the banking sector. Significance The two-year recession has made Brazil’s public- and private-sector banks increasingly risk-averse in their lending to households and companies. This is likely to persist in 2017, owing to a very uncertain and fragile economic recovery, high unemployment and elevated levels of private-sector debt. Impacts Less-aggressive lending by national state banks will help public finances and give private banks a chance to increase market share. Spanish Santander will be the only foreign bank capable of competing in Brazil’s retail banking segment in the coming years. Other foreign banks lacking the necessary scale for profitable retail banking will focus on other niches.
