We focus our analysis on Asia and Latin America during the period 2005–2016. The sample contains 26243 observations and total of 158 commercial banks. We are able to provide empirical evidence that an increase in foreign bank penetration enhances product diversification performance. We find that this positive correlation between bank performance and foreign bank penetration. When foreign bank penetration increase, the profit of diversification increase. This effect becomes stronger when more efficient and high competitive market foreign banks enter into less concentrated host country markets.
