Banking: Performance, Challenges &Prospects for Development

There is ample literature that argues commercial banks within a country and across countries are in economic harmony when it comes to their capital/asset ratio response to changes in such economic determinants as cost, loans, and profitability. This book focuses on answering the question if European banks are in economic harmony. It continues with discussing banking employment in the early twenty-first century and ends with a national cohort study on posttraumatic stress symptoms in individuals following a bank robbery.
