The role of producer services in regional development: what opportunities for medium-sized cities in Belgium?

The Service Industries Journal, 2005, vol. 25, issue 2, 213-228

Abstract: The presence or absence of producer services in a region is supposed to influence regional development. Nevertheless, the way in which these activities contribute to regional development is still very imperfectly understood. This article is a combined theoretical--empirical analysis of four of these mechanisms: the employment effect, the exportation effect, the productivity--competitivity effect and the attraction effect.
