ملخص
This study evaluates the monopoly power of Qatar banking industry during the period 1993 to 2002. The sample consists of panel of 60 observations using the 'H-statistic' by Panzar and Rosse and investigates the market structure using the most frequently applied measures of concentration k-bank concentration ratio and Herfindahl Hirschman index. Both of the concentration indices indicate that the Qatar had a 'very concentrated market'. The Panzar and Rosse 'H-statistic' suggests that Qatar banks operate under monopolistic competition. Qatar Central Bank should be very cautious in granting mergers among banks, in particular among large 'core' banks.
