Abstract

This paper analyses the role of real estate markets and foreign-owned banks in bank credit growth in Croatia from 1999 to 2008 by applying panel data analysis. This paper gives a more profound explanation of host countries’ variables influencing bank orientation towards housing credit in the home county. We explain the channel through which the foreign-owned banks can facilitate domestic demand for housing and push the housing bubble, motivated by determinants outside the host country. Our results suggest that foreign-owned banks’ orientation to real estate markets increased credit supply to all private sectors in Croatia during the credit boom in 1999–2008.
