Abstract: This study examines the impact of social capital on the export success of domestic SMEs in Vietnam, looking at both export propensity (whether they export at all) and export performance (how much they export). Two stylized facts inspire the research. The first is the relatively modest performance of Vietnamese SMEs in export activities to date, despite their potential and increasing importance in the economy. The second is the widespread perception within Vietnam about the power of social relationships of firms in the Vietnamese business environment.
