Resumen

Este artículo investiga los efectos del poder de mercado bancario a corto y largo plazo sobre la disponibilidad de crédito para las empresas, y sobre la inversión corporativa. Nuestros resultados sugieren que un incremento del poder de mercado bancario reduce la disponibilidad de crédito y la inversión de las empresas a corto plazo, pero a largo plazo la inversión empresarial se recupera. Se descubre que la importancia económica de estos resultados es mayor para las pequeñas y medianas empresas que las (otras) grandes empresas.
