Financial Frictions and International Trade: A Review

David Kohn, Fernando Leibovici and Michal Szkup

No 113, Working Papers from Red Nacional de Investigadores en Economía (RedNIE)

Abstract: This paper reviews recent studies on the impact of financial frictions on international trade. We first present evidence on the relation between measures of access to external finance and export decisions. We then present an analytical framework to analyze the impact of financial frictions on firms’ export decisions. Finally, we review recent applications of this framework to investigate the impact of financial frictions on international trade dynamics across firms, industries, and in the aggregate. We discuss related empirical, theoretical, and quantitative studies throughout.
