Abstract

Business strategy and market communication of financial intermediaries, including banks require a transformation under the significant impact of the innovation’s development and a highly competitive landscape. The article considers bank marketing improvement through evaluation of deposit market competition. Key trends of the deposit market by Ukrainian case were analysed by authors. More than 60% of the total deposit portfolio of Ukraine is concentrated in 5 largest banks making market highly concentrated. Comparative matrix of the existing approaches and models for assessing the level of competition in the banking market was presented in the paper. Using nonstructural Panzar-Rosse model (by calculating the H-statistics as an indicator of the level of competition on the market) and input quarterly data on the bank’s financial performance in Ukraine for the period 01.01.2005 – 01.04.2016, four main factors for bank competition level on the deposit market were identified. They include the rate of bank liquidity; factor describing the effectiveness of bank funding strategy; a factor assessing the availability of the bank’s reserve funds and a factor that combines all the key indicators of the country’s banking system stability (the ratio of equity capital to total assets, the ratio of the volume of customers’ deposits to total assets, the ratio of total unpaid assets to assets, the ratio of total administrative expenses of the bank to its assets). Evaluation results point out on the monopolistic competition with frequent deviations towards absolute monopoly or oligopoly on the deposit market of Ukraine. This trend is consistent with the characteristic of the European Union indicating a further reforming of the banking sector in this segment (for example, full implementation of Basel II, Basel III). Suggested and empirically tested approach for evaluation of deposit market competition could expand tools of bank marketing strategies.  

Keywords: bank marketing, banks, deposit market, competition, Panzar-Rosse model.
