THE BOONE INDICATOR

A measure of degree of competition. Calculated as the percentage change of profits due to 1 percent change in costs. Based on rationale that higher profits are achieved by more-efficient banks.

As competition increases all banks become more competent and therefore allocation of industry resources is efficient.

THE BOONE INDICATOR

As allocation of industry resources is more efficient due to competition an increase in cost would not increase profit. The more negative the Boone indicator, the higher the degree of competition.

An increase in the Boone indicator implies a deterioration of the competitive conduct of financial intermediaries.
Australia has a positive Boone since 2005.

CONCLUSION

Australia has been generally lagging behind other High Income Countries in Financial Sector Institutional efficiency. There is enough room for further efficiency gains in Australian Banking Industry.

The higher profit and lower costs hint that. Boone Indicator also confirms it.
Therefore, more reforms to improve efficient allocation of resources is proposed.
