Firms' productivity and internationalization: a statistical dominance test

Fernando Merino

Applied Economics Letters, 2004, vol. 11, issue 13, 851-854

Abstract: The literature on firm's internationalization establishes a direct relationship between productivity and foreign activities. This paper extends the usual tests on this relationship in two areas: first, it distinguishes the main stages in the internationalization process (multinationals and exporters); second, as tests of difference of means may be insufficient, statistical dominance tests of the productivity distribution have been formulated.
