Abstract

Using data from 2004 to 2013, we investigate the effects of foreign ownership on commercial banks’ performance for “BRICS” countries in a panel consisting of 50 banks 500 observations. Applying DEA model, we compute sample banks’ efficiency. Conclusions of regression analysis show that foreign ownership of commercial banks has a significant positive effect on their performance. But this positive effect is limited and will be affected by the size of commercial banks. The larger commercial bank is, the smaller foreign ownership’s positive impact on its performance will be.
