We analyze the impact of efficiency on bank risk. We also consider whether bank capital has an effect on this … relationship. We model the inter-temporal relationships among efficiency, capital and risk for a large sample of commercial banks … supporting the bad management and efficiency version of the moral hazard hypotheses. In contrast, bank efficiency improvements …
