The variety of new banking products, developed to accomodate the increased customer needs, provides a clear indication of the changes that the banking industry has undergone during the last two decades. Due to this there is a need of advanced quantitative analysis for risk management, information technology, quality management, etc. The implementation of these approaches in banking management is in accordance with the finding that empirical procedures are no longer adequate to address with increasing complexity of the banking industry. All the above issues are included in the edited volume,...

The rapid changes that have taken place globally on the economic, social and business fronts characterized the 20th century. The magnitude of these changes has formed an extremely complex and unpredictable decision-making framework, which is difficult to model through traditional approaches. The main purpose of his book is to present the most recent advances in the development of innovative technique for managing the uncertainty that prevails in the global economic and management environments. These techniques originate mainly from fuzzy sets theory. However, the book also explores the...

In recent years, the banking industry has faced significant challenges due to deregulation, globalization, financial innovation, and intensified global competition. In response to these challenges, banks have adopted strategies to grow and expand their activities, with mergers and acquisitions (M&As) being one of the most popular over the last decade. This unique book thus discusses the use of quantitative classification methods for the prediction of bank acquisitions. With an overview of the M&A trends in the EU banking industry and a survey of the motives for M&As, the authors compare...
