Dynamic Data Envelopment Analysis is a new approach which estimates the performance of a group of DMUs during several periods of time.

The result of scale efficiency found that the main source of inefficiency is the inaccurate size of the biggest banks and also the excess client deposits managed by Czech banks.</p></abstract>
