Impact of financial cooperatives on competition and pricing

HG Hans Groeneveld Public Seen by 18

Hi everybody,

Does anybody know recent empirical literature or research on the influence (presence value) of financial cooperatives on prices for financial products and services in the market? Do they improve price conditions for customers in the markets?

Many thanks for any suggestions!
Hans

Hans,

I don't know directly, but I can point you in a direction that should help. Paul Jones (Liverpool John Moores, UK) is Reader in Social Economy - his specialist field is credit unions so I suspect he'll be able to direct you to a literature on this. He was editor of the Journal of Co-operative Studies for many years so will have a good grasp of the literature in the field. His e-mail is [email protected]

The other group that I suspect will be able to help is the Credit Unions research group at Cork University - there was a group of about eight people there with a I visited a few years ago. You could try [email protected] or [email protected] (Bridget).
