- Abstract
The competition in the Indian banking industry has intensified since the financial liberalization, which started in the early nineties The paper tries to examine changes in bank productivity growth through employing the Malmquist Total Factor Productivity (TFP) index. The study also decompounds the total factor productivity change of banks into technological progress, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency change. Overall total factor productivity of banks was almost stagnant during the study period. The contribution of technological progress towards productivity is declining, however, technical efficiency and scale efficiency has been improved for all banks. The highest TFP growth has been observed among public sector banks, followed by old private banks (mostly in terms of increasing efficiency in catching up with new private and foreign banks), while both new private banks and foreign banks recorded decline in TFP growth.
