Abstract

[fre] L'objet de cet article est d'examiner les déterminants de l'implantation des banques étrangères en France par pays d'origine sur la période 1982-1996. Le modèle utilisé dans cet article, a été d'abord inspiré par Grosse et Goldberg (1991), pour expliquer la présence des banques étrangères par pays d'origine aux États-Unis, puis par Ursacki et Vertinsky (1992), pour expliquer la présence des banques étrangères au Japon et en Corée. Les résultats empiriques indiquent que la taille du secteur bancaire dans le pays d'origine de la banque étrangère et le commerce extérieur du pays de la banque étrangère avec la France, sont positivement corrélés avec le nombre de banques étrangères présentes en France. La distance géographique est négativement corrélée au nombre des banques étrangères en France. Enfin, l'investissement direct étranger en France n'explique pas la croissance du nombre des banques étrangères en France. [eng] The determinants of the presence of foreign banks in France. This paper examines the determinants of the presence of foreign banks in France over the period 1982-1996. The paper uses a model developed by Grosse and Goldberg (1991), Ursacki et Vertinsky (1992) to test the determinants of the number of foreign banks in France according to their country of origin. The empirical results indicate that the size of the banking sector in the Foreign country it cornes from and the foreign trade with France are, positively correlated with the number of Foreign banks present on the French market. Geographic distance is negatively correlated with the presence of Foreign banks in France. Foreign direct investment in France does not explain the number of foreign banks present in France.
