Abstract
► We investigate the link between measures of financial freedom and bank efficiency. ► We develop a robust bootstrap procedure to test the above hypothesis. ► We estimate bank-specific efficiency scores using data envelopment analysis. ► Higher degrees of financial freedom are associated with higher levels of efficiency. ► The results are robust when controlling for the role of other institutional variables.
