| dc.description.abstract | In a contemporary market structure, the establishment of a successful and efficient banking system is an issue of high priority. One of the most important factors is maintaining stability in the banking business especially when the country belongs to economic unions comprising certain countries; therefore, destabilization in the national sector might erode the European one. The period of joining the EU has a positive impact on the Bulgarian banking sector, which leads to significant intensity in the restructuring and consolidation of banks in the country during the period 2006–2020. On the basis of this, the banking systems in the country decrease from twenty-nine banks in 2007 to twenty-four in 2020. The undertaken solutions favor the trend in the banking system, which throughout the last years has been sustainable and competitive. | us_US |
