The efficiency hypothesis suggests that efficient foreign banks target inefficient local banks to transfer their superior technologies and management practices. On the other hand, the market power hypothesis explains that foreign banks target large local banks irrespective of their degree of efficiency. The framework in this paper differs from previous studies because we compare financial data of local banks. Results indicate that the market power hypothesis better explains foreign banks? behavior. As empirical studies regarding foreign banks? entry-mode decisions are scarce, this paper presents original evidence regarding foreign banks? motives and strategies into local markets.},
