This book focuses on the conglomeration of banking and insurance activities among financial institutions of the 15 old members of the European Union, and addresses the development and impact of conglomeration linkages between these fifteen and the ten new member states. Most of the large groups combining banking and insurance activities groups among the former member states of the European Union are often linked to the largest such institutions in the new member states, having created the linkages mainly through Merger & Acquisition Activities; with greater accent on the banking sector and lesser connections on insurance side. Financial conglomeration linkages between the EU-15 and the new member states highlight investment attractiveness of the new members, with the appeal of new markets that allow the presence of more participants. Both institution-specific and country-specific factors play role in conglomeration across the new member states. 606 $aFinancial services industry 606 $aConglomerate corporations 607 $aEuropean Union countries 610 $a21st century, Banks, Economic integration, European Union, Financial services, Late 20th century. 615 00$aFinancial services industry. 615 00$aConglomerate corporations. 676 $a332.1/094 700 $aUlst$b Ingrid$01507573 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783442503321 996 $aLinkages of financial groups in the European Union$93738440 997 $aUNINA
