Consistency conditions for regulatory analysis of financial institutions: a comparison of frontier efficiency methods

Article Abstract:

Six consistency conditions are proposed for the effective regulatory analysis of financial institutions. Consistency in efficiency levels, rankings and identification of best and worst companies are proposed to identify the level in which the different strategies are consistent with each other. The parametric methods show consistency with each other, which can also be said in the case of nonparametric methods. However, mutual consistency is not shown by parametric and nonparametric methods. The choice between parametric and nonparametric method is found to generally affect regulatory policy considerations.
