“…Currency reserves is the total reserves, including holdings of monetary gold, special drawing rights, reserves of IMF members held by the IMF, and holdings of foreign exchange under the control of monetary authorities (World Bank, 2010). Next, we included industry level control variables, measured based on 3-digit SIC codes, to capture industry characteristics influencing firm internationalization (UNCTAD, 2013; Wiersema & Bowen, 2011).
