Abstract
Employing data on 3,943 banks from the EU-15 between 2013 and 2020, this paper empirically
analyzes the relationship between banking market consolidation, market power and banking stability,
separately for the loan and deposit market. We initially find that European banks follow a loss-leader pricing
strategy and cross-subsidize between both markets. In addition, it is observed that the empirical link
between consolidation and market power is weak and thus, provokes diametral findings. Investigating the
conditionality of consolidation and market power further reveals that, although the negative impact of
consolidation on stability is reduced, it is not fully crowded out, even if banks exhibit stronger market power
in the loan and deposit market. Analyzing likely impact channels, different determinants of bank distress
as well as effects from the lower bound and negative interest rates regime provides further important
insights.
