Analysis of concentration, dominance and symmetry in bank deposits in Colombia (March 2017)

Abstract

This study computes and analyzes some indicators of concentration, dominance and symmetry applied to the departmental distribution of deposits (in pesos) of banking establishments, broken down into 6 financial products: bank current account deposits, simple deposits, Term deposits, savings accounts, special savings accounts and real value savings certificates to March 2017. The results are contrasted with the information of December 2013, finding evidence of a process of greater concentration and geographical dominance of bank deposits, all variables except for real value saving certificates.
