| Abstract: | It is found in this study that the Internet stimulates trade. Evidence from time-series and cross-section regressions shows a significant effect on the Internet on trade in recent years. The results indicate that a 10 percentage point increase in the growth of web hosts in a country leads to about 0.2 percentage point increase in export growth. For the average country in the sample, the Internet contributed to about a 1 percentage point increase in annual export growth from 1997 to 1999. |
