The Effect of Mergers on the Efficiency of Commercial Banks: Evidence From Malaysia.

This paper studies the effect of mergers on the efficiency of commercial banks in Malaysia from 1995-2005. We utilise the non-parametric frontier approach, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), to analyse the efficiency of banks during the financial crisis, the merger year, and the pre-and post merger pe...
