But to explain why international trade is lower then domestic trade, home firms have to know something that foreigners do not. Without information asymmetry, domestic trade and foreign trade would be inhibited equally....
متن کاملThe International-Trade Network: Gravity Equations and Topological Properties
This paper begins to explore the determinants of the topological properties of the international-trade network (ITN). We fit bilateral-trade flows using a standard gravity equation to build a " residual " ITN where trade-link weights are depurated from geographical distance, size, border effects, trade agreements, and so on. We then compare the topological properties of the original and residua...

As international portfolio diversification is limited and productivity is uncertain, investors wish to maintain a diversified industrial structure, not specializing according to their comparative a...

متن کاملThe Network Structure of International Trade∗
I build a simple dynamic model of the formation of an international social network of importers and exporters. Firms can only export into markets in which they have a contact. They acquire new contacts both at random, and via their network of existing contacts. This model explains (i) the cross-sectional distribution of the number of foreign markets accessed by individual exporters, (ii) the cr...
