Overview: The author develops statistical models that relate the incidence of mergers and consolidations to financial characteristics of banks. Those models are then used to predict the likelihood of an institution being a target bank or an acquirer in a merger or consolidation over a two-year horizon. The study concludes with a discussion of the merger forecasts, as well as the geographic areas where interstate merger activity appears most likely to occur.
