Abstract: | Interactions between exporting and productivity are investigated at the company level, using a panel of companies in the UK chemical industry, which is both highly technology intensive and the UK's largest exporting sector. Exporters are found to be more productive than non-exporters, but are also on average smaller. This superior productivity performance among exporters appears to be caused by both self-selection and learning-by-exporting effects. |
