Working papers from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Department of Economics

Abstract: While Germany has a very open, export-oriented manufacturing sector, to date there has been little or no research on the role of exporting in German firm performance. This paper documents the significant differences between exporters and non-exporters and attemps to identify the sources of these disparities.
