It assesses the level of activity of foreign commercial banks in the aftermath of the 2008 – 2012 financial crisis and explores its relationship with banking sector efficiency. The study focuses on 13 countries, including Central European, South-Eastern European and Baltic states. Using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method, the research aims to determine whether foreign banks have gained or lost influence in these markets and the foreign countries that have the best performing banks in these markets. Furthermore, it provides insights into the potential influence of sources of foreign capital on the overall performance of domestic banking markets, indicating how competition could drive high-achieving foreign banks to outperform in their established markets.}, publisher = {Slovenska Akademia Vied}, keywords = {European Union}, keywords = {Banking sector}, keywords = {Foreign and domestic capital}, title = {Foreign Bank Origins and Efficiency in the Central and Eastern European Banking Sector}, doi = {10.31577/ekoncas.2023.08-09.03}, author = {Piatkov, Artem and Jiménez Hernández, Ignacio and Sáez Fernández, Francisco Javier}, }
