Abstract

Spanish Abstract: Una de las características más notables de los sectores financieros en los países en proceso de adhesión a la Unión Europea es el elevado peso de la financiación bancaria internacional, tanto a través de créditos transfronterizos como de la actividad de filiales y sucursales de bancos extranjeros (2). Para las economías de estos países, el rápido aumento del crédito concedido por entidades extranjeras ha permitido incrementar la cantidad y calidad de los servicios financieros disponibles. Los efectos favorables de la implantación de bancos extranjeros sobre la eficiencia del sector bancario y sobre la calidad de la gestión empresarial, tanto de los propios bancos como de sus clientes, han sido ampliamente reconocidos.

English Abstract: One of the most notable characteristics of the financial sectors in countries in the process of joining the European Union is the high weight of international bank financing, both through cross-border loans and the activity of subsidiaries and branches of foreign banks. For the economies of these countries, the rapid increase in credit granted by foreign entities has made it possible to increase the quantity and quality of available financial services. The favorable effects of the introduction of foreign banks on the efficiency of the banking sector and on the quality of business management, both of the banks themselves and of their customers, have been widely recognized.
