This study
looks at how banks' strategic use of cloud computing affected their performance
and risk-taking. We find that banks' adoption of cloud computing is associated
with worse cost efficiency, higher profit efficiency, and increased operational
risk using data on Chinese banks from 2008-2019 and a new measure of banks'
exposure to cloud computing. Cloud computing enhances operational risk control
and cost efficiency through synergy, while blockchain diminishes profit
efficiency owing to substitutive effects. This is only one example of how cloud
computing interacts with other new technologies. These results have real-world
implications for policymakers, regulators, and bank managers at this critical
juncture.
