Summary:This paper examines the process of concentration of financial institutions in Argentina experienced after the December 1994 devaluation of the Mexican peso and its effects on the supply of credit. While the concentration process may have improved the efficiency of domestic financial intermediation, it also may have contributed to the temporary contraction in bank lending observed during 1995. Information asymmetries in the market for loans may explain this result.
