Existing literature at the nexus of firm productivity and export behavior mostly focuses on “learning by exporting,” whereby firms can improve their performance engaging in exports. Whereas, secondary channel learning via cross-firm spillovers from exporting peers, or exporters,” has largely been neglected. Omitting this important mechanism, which benefit both exporters non-exporters, may provi...

In this article we focus on the role of exports in Chinese economic development era WTO accession. We address a series different, although connected, questions. First, do exporting and non-exporting firms differ terms their productivity performance paid wages? Second, to what extent have contributed process convergence catching-up? Third, does productivity-wage pass-through between firms? Overa...

Based on a sample of 461 micro- and small family businesses in Western Austria, this study aimed to analyze the degree internationalization individual activities value chain their influence export probability firms. The results show that exporting non-exporting are internationalized different can partly explain probability. resource-based view (RBV) only be used limited extent firms, certain fi...

This paper presents results of simulating a more collusive behavior of a group of natural gas producing and exporting countries, sometimes called GASPEC. We use the World Gas Model, a dynamic, strategic representation of world gas production, trade, and consumption between 2005 and 2030. In particular, we simulate a closer cooperation of the GASPEC countries when exporting pipeline gas and liqu...

Productivity Premia for German Manufacturing Firms Exporting to the Euro-Area and Beyond: First Evidence from Robust Fixed Effects Estimations This paper makes three contributions. (1) It summarizes in tabular form a recent literature made of 36 micro-econometric studies for 16 different countries on the relationship between export destination and firm performance. (2) It reports estimates of t...

This article argues that trade in services has a specific feature that does not apply to trade in goods. As the traded service is partly produced where it is consumed (i.e. in the importing country), we propose that it must use interactively inputs from both the exporting and importing countries. The modelling of the specificity of traded services is inspired from the O-ring production function...

We investigate a recent methodology we have proposed to extract valuable information on the competitiveness of countries and complexity of products from trade data. Standard economic theories predict a high level of specialization of countries in specific industrial sectors. However, a direct analysis of the official databases of exported products by all countries shows that the actual situatio...

This document presents a list of tests for implementers of IP Flow Information eXport (IPFIX) compliant Exporting Processes and Collecting Processes. This document specifies guidelines for a series of tests that can be run on the IPFIX Exporting Process and Collecting Process in order to probe the conformity and robustness of the IPFIX protocol implementations. These tests cover all important f...
