“…Even though this does not assume the existence of true competition, these results point out to good perspectives for creation and development of competition. In fact, we could consider that our results confirm the results obtained by [Lončar & Rajić, 2012] and [Miljković et al, 2013], which referred to three quarters of 2012, as well as those of [Ljumović et al, 2014], for the period between 2003 and 2012. However, we should take account of slight growth in concentration.…”

“…Therefore, other indicators are necessary. They can be, for instance, attracting deposits [Berger & Hannan, 1989], assets and deposits [Berger et al, 1999], assets, loans and deposits [Ljumović et al, 2014], deposits and loans to legal and physical persons [Коцофана и Стажкова, 2011], deposits, loans to legal and physical persons and assets [Ракша, 2010], deposits, loans to legal and physical persons and capital [Lončar & Rajić, 2012], assets, capital, loans, deposits, interest income and net profit (loss) after tax [Miljković et al, 2013]. A review of literature about the use of concentration measures in banking sector until the beginning of 2000s is given in [Bikker & Haaf, 2002b].…”

“…In [Ljumović et al, 2014], [Lončar & Rajić, 2012] and [Miljković et al, 2013] Linda-index was not used, but CRn, HH and others were: reciprocity index, comprehensive concentration index or Horvath-index (CCI), Entropy-index (E-index) and Gini-coefficient. For our purposes, all other indices except the CRn index bear no importance.…”

The paper analyzes the degree of concentration and competition in Serbian banking sector on the basis of bank financial statements for year 2016. It uses the traditional concentration indicators (CRn and HH indices), as well as the relatively rarely used Linda indices. The concentration degree is calculated based on five variables: total assets, deposits, capital, bank operating income and loans. It was demonstrated that in the case of the relatively large number of banks in Serbia, the existing concentration degree is low, which provides suitable conditions for the development of healthy competition among them.

“…In Serbia several researches were conducted. All of them show that concentration in banking sector is moderate despite decrease in the number of banks (Marinković 2006, 2007, Lončar and Rajić 2012, Miljković, et al 2013, Barjaktarović et al 2013.…”

Is nobody interested in the future of banks? a scoping literature review on the state of the debate

Narratives are playing an increasingly important role in economics since their performative character has been realised. Banks are not unaffected by this, as they face many future challenges and are thus directly affected by narratives. For this reason, this article aims to reveal the future prospects within the academic landscape on the basis of a scoping literature review to create transparency about where the narratives come from. So, it is not the intention to make another prediction about the future of the banks. The paper presents contributions that make explicit statements about the future of banks, either a description of the future or an assessment of the future prospects of banks. Two databases were searched in this context, IDEAS/RePEc and Scopus, for the period from 2001 to 2021. A total of 99 relevant contributions were identified and finally used to answer three questions: (1) What challenges are seen for banks in the future? (2) What kind of future is depicted? (3) How are the future prospects derived? It turns out that challenges are seen in profitability, regulation, technology, and customer behaviour. The future prospects vary considerably, which puts the focus on the last question. Among other things, an overemphasis on intermediation theory tends to generate negative future prospects. It can be seen that the importance of the assumptions for the derivation of future prospects has not yet been recognised and further research is necessary to get a more complete picture of the future of banks.
