Banking Output & Price Indicators from Quarterly Reporting Data

Abstract: The measurement of banking output (and therefore productivity) has long been controversial. This article applies the user cost approach in Fixler and Zieschang (1999) to quarterly reporting data from Luxembourg's banking sector. This requires associating the flows in the profit-and-loss account to different assets and liabilities in the balance sheet. The user cost of each asset/liability is then calculated as the difference between the rate at which it generates revenues/costs and a "reference rate" represent… Show more

“…This approach was elaborated by Hancock (1985), who developed a production theory for financial firms, whose inputs and outputs are determined empirically.
