Abstract: | The empirically established export premium can be explained by two non-mutually exclusive hypotheses: self-selection of more productive companies into export markets and learning-by-exporting. The focus of this paper is on how the temporal dimension of companies' exporting activities and the intensity of exports influence the scope of learning effects. A panel of Swedish companies and dynamic generalized method of moments estimation, a learning effect is found among persistent exporters with high export intensity, but not among temporary exporters or persistent exporters with both high and low export intensity. |
