How did these changes affect a banking industry in which the six largest local banks accounted for over 70 percent of market share? The estimated Lerner index from Bresnahan's [1989] conjectural variation model indicates the possibility of a decline in the degree of competition.}, title = {The Degree of Competition in the Thai Banking Industry before and after the East Asian Crisis}, year = {2006} }
