Abstract

The paper evaluates competition in Russian banking sector with the use of methodology of the sectoral markets theory. Basing on the existing methods of analysis of competition, the authors suggest a model for an empirical research, which takes into account of such operational particularities of the national banking sector as segmentation of the market for consumers of banking services and a special role of Sberbank on some markets. The empirical analysis is conducted on the basis of the suggested model with the use of the Russian banks' balance-sheet reporting data..
