“…Recent studies find that only a small group of highly productive firms export, while there is a clear effect between productivity and the export status of enterprises [10]. However, Dalgıç et al [9] present evidence for the learning-by-exporting hypothesis. After controlling for the composition of exports, they find strong evidence of productivity gains, particularly for exports to high-income countries instead of middle-low-income countries.…”

“…This paper attempts to fill this gap by identifying the role of exporting on productivity, particularly in less developed economies. Much of the discussion on this topic concerns the issue of self-selection versus learning by exporting [9,17]. Namely, "the export premium" can result from increasing productivity, in which case the more productive firms are self-selecting into exporting.…”

“…Some of the most widely discussed are gains from increased exports (and innovation). The substantial literature deliberates on the benefits of learning-by-exporting (LBE), finding the relationship between exports and productivity generally positive [2,9], notwithstanding that export learning has a different impact depending upon the innovation position of the exporter [10]. Furthermore, a firm's productivity is contingent upon a firm's specifics [11].…”

Impact of Innovation and Exports on Productivity: Are There Complementary Effects?

The relationship between firms’ exports and increases in productivity is generally regarded as positive. While the causal effects of process innovation are straightforward and positive, the effect of product innovation on productivity is ambiguous. However, there is a lack of empirical evidence on a joint effect that innovation and exports have on firms’ productivity. In our attempt to fill this gap, we explore individual and joint effects of innovation and exports on productivity by employing cross-sectional firm-level data. We use the sixth wave of the Business Environment and Enterprise Performance Survey (BEEPS VI: 2018–2020) conducted by the EBRD and the World Bank. Using a stratified random sampling, the data was collected from interviews with representatives of randomly chosen firms from 32 countries. The overall results suggest that exporting firms are more productive than non-exporters, while the impact of innovation is more heterogeneous. Whereas EU and high-income countries reap the productivity benefits, this effect is absent in other regions and countries with medium and low-income levels. Finally, our results indicate the absence of a joint effect of innovation and exports on productivity, across different geographical regions and countries of different income levels.

“…Thus, it can be expected that exports potentially provide a higher employment level, increase productivity, and consequently, promote economic growth (Love and Mansury, 2009;Feenstra, Ma and Xu, 2019;Sasahara, 2019). Generally, many empirical papers have analyzed the exportproductivity nexus (Vu, Holmes, Tran and Lim, 2016;Zhou, 2020;Dalgıç, Fazlıoğlu and Gasiorek, 2021;Esaku, 2021;Gkypali, Love and Roper, 2021), and the empirical findings have shown that export has a significant positive impact on a firm's productivity. For example, Yang and Chen (2012) investigated the relationship between exporting and productivity for Indonesian manufacturing firms.…”

This study examined causality association and short-and long-term relationship between investments and exports in Turkey for the period of 1980-2019. After detecting that series of investment and export are stationary at first differences based on KPSS stationarity test, a cointegration test was implemented by employing the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) bound test, the results of which disclosed that investments and exports in Turkey are co-integrated and move together over the long-term. The long-term coefficient estimation findings showed that investments positively and statistically significantly affect exports over the long-term. In other words, an increase in the investment level by 1% induced increase in the export level by 0.13% over the long-term. Meantime the estimated model had no problems with regard to autocorrelation, heteroscedasticity, normality, and model specification. Finally, the causality test results indicated that there was only a one-way causality relationship running from the investments to the exports. Türkiye'nin 1980Türkiye'nin -2019 dönemi verileri ile açıklamaktadır. KPSS durağanlık testine bağlı olarak yatırımlar ve ihracat serilerinin birinci farklarının durağan olduğuna ulaşılmasından sonra ARDL sınır testini istihdam ederek bir eş bütünleşme testi uygulanmıştır. Bu analiz sonuçları Türkiye'de yatırımlar ve ihracat değişkenlerinin eş bütünleşik olduğu ve uzun dönemde birlikte hareket ettiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Uzun dönem katsayı tahmin bulguları uzun dönemde yatırımların ihracatı pozitif yönlü istatistiksel olarak anlamlı etkileyeceğini göstermektedir. Başka bir deyişle, yatırımlardaki %1'lik bir artışın, uzun dönemde ihracat seviyesinde %0,13 kadar bir artışa neden olmaktadır. Ayrıca tahmin edilen model; oto korelasyon, değişen varyans, normallik ve model belirleme ile ilişkili problemlere sahip bulunmamaktadır. Sonuç olarak; nedensellik test sonuçları, yatırımlardan ihracata doğru tek yönlü bir nedensellik ilişkisi olduğu sonucuna ulaşmaktadır.

Does Domestic Concentration Cancel the Potentially Beneficial Effect of International Competition on Firm Productivity? Evidence from Manufacturing Firms in Cameroon

Using manufacturing firm-level data from the World Bank Enterprise Surveys (WBES) in 2009 and 2016 and Cameroon’s general enterprise censuses, this paper empirically investigates the joint effect of domestic concentration and international competition on productivity. Instrumental variable estimates suggest that exports improve the productivity of firms operating only in industries where concentration is very low. Moreover, participation in the international market has no effect on the productivity of firms operating in the moderately and highly concentrated sectors. Thus, although concentration has no direct effect on productivity, it nevertheless reduces the positive effect of international competition (through exports). This study not only serves as a reference for future investigations but also carries significant theoretical and empirical implications.
