"government ownership of banks has been robustly associated  with higher long-run growth rates"


"We present new cross-country evidence that reveals that during
1995–2007, government ownership of banks has been robustly associated
with higher long-run growth rates. We also show that previous results
suggesting that government ownership of banks is associated with lower
long-run growth rates are not robust to conditioning on more
‘fundamental’ determinants of economic growth."
