摘要：
This paper examines the impact of pre-2020 information technology (IT) adoption on bank performance during the initial stages of the Covid-19 pandemic. We show that high IT adopters performed better in terms of market returns, Tobin's q and lending. Our findings also suggest that higher pre-crisis IT investments are associated with more loans issued under the US Paycheck Protection Program, and lower rates of loan modifications due to Covid-19. This study corroborates other recent findings that technology adoption fosters banks' resilience during crises, ultimately enhancing financial stability. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
