The monograph presents a comprehensive analysis of the impact of
the COVID-19 pandemic on European banking, both at a macro and a
micro level. It analyses the impact of the pandemic on bank
stability, performance and credit policies, as well as their
strategic adjustments to the challenges brought about by the
COVID-19 pandemic. The initial chapters analyze the various
governmental responses to the pandemic. Topics of discussion
include the scale and scope of the wide range of public policies
undertaken to mitigate the consequences of the crisis, and their
efficiency in limiting the negative impact of the pandemic on the
economy. The results suggest that the extensive public
interventions have been largely successful in averting the possible
disastrous consequences for the financial sector on a macro level.
On a micro level, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the
restructuring and recovery of the banking industry started after
the 2008 crisis which has had a significant impact on economies
around the world, arguably leading to a negative long-lasting
effect on sustainable development. To examine this, the book
focuses on the impact of the pandemic on bank lending policies,
bank stability and performance, and on competitive position of the
banks vis a vis the FinTech sector. Offering a thorough overview of
the issues that banks will have to face as a consequence of
pandemic related macroeconomic and industry adjustments, the book
will be of interest to scholars, researchers and students of
banking and finance as well as banking specialists concerned with
the impact of crises on financial markets, risks and resilience.
This book offers a comparative analysis of how post-crisis
restructuring has affected the evolution and prospects of small,
locally-oriented banks. The discussion focuses specifically on
"small" European countries; that is, countries with diversified
banking systems, with a strong presence of cooperative and other
forms of local banks. Such countries include highly developed
economies like Italy and emerging European economies, such as
Poland. The authors stress the unique importance of local banks in
generating credit for both households and firms, and hence in
contributing to overall economic growth. Chapters cohere around the
argument that although smaller banks fared better than their larger
counterparts the recent financial crisis, they have been directly
and indirectly discriminated against in post-crisis restructuring
schemes, and, as such, face many operational and strategic
challenges today. The contributors are a distinguished group of
researchers with expert knowledge of the competitive positions of
and opportunities for locally oriented banks, who combine
theoretical and empirical perspectives on these topics.
This book discusses the transformation of the banking industry,
particularly after a number of recent shocks: 2008 financial
crisis, 2012 Euro-sovereign crisis, the pandemic COVID-19 crisis,
the technological revolution, and reputational problems in banking
due to climate risk and ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance)
metrics. The book emphasizes two post-pandemic issues: the role of
financial education and inclusive finance, and responsible banking
and ESG priorities. Individual chapters analyse how the pandemic
shed new light on social and governance responsibilities: Major
issues include the importance and efficiency of financial
education, and the impact of ESG programs on firms’ value,
banks’ probability of default, bank business models and
reputation risk. The book also addresses investors’ behaviour and
the factors which may bias financial disclosure and reporting. By
addressing whether the post-2008 crisis bank restructuring has
effectively created a resilient and sustainable banking system –
mostly from the European market’s perspective – the book will
be of interest to researchers, academics, policy makers, and
professionals of banking and financial institutions.
