Market Power, Multinationality and Intra-EU Industry Exports in the 1990s

This paper assesses the impact of market power and multinationality in EU12 manufacturing industries on EU integration in goods trade in the 90ies. An increase in the market concentration exhibits a positive impact on bilateral exports, while an increase in multinationality works in the opposite direction. Both effects are in accordance with the theoretical hypotheses. As a result, goods trade between the member countries was polarised in terms of a relative disintegration.
