Se utiliza información mensual de balances financieros de instituciones bancarias colombianas en el periodo 1997 a 2006. La evidencia muestra que en periodos de alto riesgo los bancos tienden a transferir a sus clientes una proporción mayor del riesgo a través de los márgenes de intermediación. Esto sugiere que el riesgo sistémico actúa como un mecanismo colusivo para los bancos. Una alta concentración de mercado no es suficiente para que haya colusión: es en situaciones de alto riesgo sistémico que la concentración se traduce en ejercicio de poder de mercado.33 páginasapplication/pdfengUniversidad de los Andes, Facultad de Economía, CEDEDocumentos CEDE No. 27 Noviembre de 2007https://ideas.repec.org/p/col/000089/004385.htmlRisk, concentration and market power in the banking industry : evidence from the Colombian System (1997-2006)Riesgo, concentración y poder de mercado en el sistema financiero : el caso colombiano (1997-2006)Documento de trabajoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_8042http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttps://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/WPBankingMarket powerRiskConcentrationIntermediation marginsBancos - Colombia - 1997-2006Mercado de valores - Colombia - 1997-2006Riesgo crediticio - Colombia - 1997-2006Concentración del capital - Colombia - 1997-2006G21, G34, G38, L11Facultad de EconomíaPublicationORIGINALdcede2007-27.pdfdcede2007-27.pdfapplication/pdf569671https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/21e70b2f-107f-4c08-aafc-02a5e2cf41bd/downloadc6155f8c8543d9d409561dc48b2a7da1MD51TEXTdcede2007-27.pdf.txtdcede2007-27.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain56684https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/5e73df4c-e462-4188-914f-de96d66040a0/downloadba6e8e921b98b4895a5c944dd43d1bafMD54THUMBNAILdcede2007-27.pdf.jpgdcede2007-27.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg3649https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/4ada4361-bf56-4a90-b59c-0912d02057fe/downloadcd32bdebe470e9017cdb9e346c93fa9dMD551992/8181oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/81812024-06-04 15:41:43.001http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co
