Aktywność inwestorów w procesach fuzji i przejęć banków komercyjnych w polskim sektorze bankowym
Activity of Investors During Mergers and Acquisitions in the Polish Banking Sector

Summary/Abstract: The objective of the study is to analyse periodicity of mergers and acquisitions of commercial banks in the Polish banking sector. The research concentrates on behaviour of strategic investors in this type of investment operations after 1989. The findings of the analysis do not support the thesis about periodicity of mergers and acquisitions in the Polish banking sector. The only element that stands out is the financial crisis caused by subprime credits. There is no doubt that the events of September and October 2008 are responsible for the complete lack of transactions in the sector in that year.
