Trading Partners and Trading Volumes:Implementing the Helpman-Melitz-Rubinstein Model Empirically

João Santos Silva and Silvana Tenreyro

Economics Discussion Papers from University of Essex, Department of Economics

Abstract: Helpman, Melitz, and Rubinstein (2008)–HMR–present a rich theoretical model to study the determinants of bilateral trade flows across countries. The model is then empirically implemented through a two-stage estimation procedure. This note seeks to clarify some econometric aspects of the estimation approach used by HMR and explore the consequences of possible departures from the maintained distributional assumptions.
