Abstract: | The bank stock loan conflict of interest question arises when compensating balances are intermingled with a bank's correspondent balances for the benefit of those bank stockholders seeking a bank stock loan. This study attempts to determine if this practice exists usign two-stage least square regression analysis and cross-sectional data obtained from one-bank holding company applications in the Tenth Federal Reserve District. Our results suggest that bankers with established correspondent banking relationships capitalize on their correspondent balances to obtain favorable interest rates on bank stock loans. |
