Someone please explain what this all means:
We present empirical evidence that the buffering effects of foreign banks in the Asian banking markets on the efficiency of monetary policy transmission during crisis periods become more conspicuous under conditions,
–(1) when an expansionary monetary policy, instead of a contractionary monetary policy, is conducted in the host countries;
–(2) for foreign banks whose parent banks in home countries are more adversely affected;
–(3) for foreign banks whose parent banks are more dependent on non-deposits, wholesale markets funding;
–(4) for global foreign banks more than Asia-regional foreign banks; and
–(5) for foreign banks entered the host banking markets via a greenfield entry mode rather than an M&A entry mode.
