Abstract

El presente artículo estudia la evolución de la concentración industrial en el sistema bancario mexicano desde el Porfiriato a nuestros días. Si bien la concentración es persistente, se distinguen ciclos de expansión y ciclos de consolidación a lo largo de la historia. Algunos de los procesos de expansión, y de consolidación, han sido promovidos por las autoridades financieras, pero también episodios de choques exógenos como crisis determinan los ciclos consolidación. El artículo también explica que un factor importante para explicar la persistencia de la concentración, así como de la participación de mercado de los grandes bancos, es la inversión de los bancos en infraestructura de redes de distribución. Si bien a lo largo del tiempo ha habido una narrativa que vincula concentración con competencia, en este artículo no abordamos posibles problemas de competencia, sino que estudiamos la concentración como una característica estructural de la industria. El artículo hace énfasis en las últimas dos décadas, en las cuales, aunque la concentración en las mayores instituciones financieras persiste, la entrada de nuevos intermediarios ha conducido a una tendencia de desconcentración del mercado.
