The Prime Premium : Is Relationship Banking Too Costly for Some?

Author

Listed:
  • Beim, D-O
Abstract
The most important determinant of bank loan pricing is not borrower risk or other conventional variable but whether the interest rate is pegged to the Prime Rate or to a market index such as Livor. Controlling for the difference in level among such benchmarks, and for many other variables explanatory of bank loan pricing, Prime-based borrowers paid 140-150 basis points more on average during 1990-1995.
