Note(s): The tables report regressions using the stochastic frontier approach. The dependent variable is the gross NPLs ratio. The independent variables are: gross loansi is the value of the gross loan portfolio expressed in EUR millions for the i-th bank; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Average Rate on Loans represented by the ratio between interest revenues over total gross loans; Sample period: 2006–2017; *, **, ***denote the 10%, 5% and 1% significance level, respectively
