From Inside The Firm to the Growth Process

David Martimort and Thierry Verdier

Journal of the European Economic Association, 2003, vol. 1, issue 2-3, 621-629

Abstract: This paper argues that the internal organization of the firm and the growth process interact strongly to determine simultaneously the power of incentives within the firm and the growth rate. We show how agents within the firm can invest either by using their own human capital or by relying on some form of reputational capital to secure implicit relationships within the firm and we discuss how these investments affect the growth rate of the economy.
