Estimation and Decomposition of Total Factor Productivity Growth in the EU Manufacturing Sector: a Stochastic Frontier Approach

Fioramanti, Marco - Istituto Nazionale di Statistica (ISTAT) - 2009

In this paper the Stochastic Frontier approach was used for the estimation and decomposition of manufacturing TFP growth in 14 EU member countries, drawing upon the EU-KLEMS database. This study identifies some key issues: in the period 1970-2005, the TFP rate of change in the EU manufacturing...

Productivity growth across the world, 1991 - 2003

Kim, Sangho; Park, Donghyun; Park, Jong-Ho - 2010

We apply a stochastic frontier production model to data from 53 countries during 1991-2003 to estimate total factor productivity growth, and decompose it into technical efficiency change and technical progress. Our empirical results indicate that world productivity growth was led by fast-growing...

Productivity of Nations : A Stochastic Frontier Approach to TFP Decomposition

Pires, Jorge Oliveira - 2015

This paper tackles the problem of aggregate TFP measurement using stochastic frontier analysis. We estimate a world production frontier for a sample of 75 countries over a long period. The “Bauer Kumbhakar” decomposition of TFP is applied to a smaller sample in order to evaluate the effects...

Examining the productivity of the ASEAN economies in the presence of transient and persistent efficiency

Haini, Hazwan - In: Cogent economics & finance 8 (2020) 1, pp. 1-21

In recent decades, the ASEAN economies have implemented a number of regional integration policies. Using a panel dataset of 10 ASEAN countries from 1980 to 2017, this study examines the productivity and efficiency of the ASEAN economies using a stochastic production frontier model. Furthermore,...

Productivity of Nations : A Stochastic Frontier Approach to TFP Decomposition

Pires, Jorge Oliveira; Garcia, Fernando - 2012

This Paper Tackles the Problem of Aggregate TFP Measurement Using Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA). Data From Penn World Table 6.1 are Used to Estimate a World Production Frontier For a Sample of 75 Countries Over a Long Period (1950-2000) Taking Advantage of the Model Offered By Battese and...

The determinants of economic competitiveness

Kluge, Jan; Lappöhn, Sarah; Plank, Kerstin - 2020

This paper aims at identifying relevant indicators for TFP growth in EU countries during the recovery phase following the 2008/09 economic crisis. We proceed in three steps: First, we estimate TFP growth by means of Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA). Second, we perform a TFP growth...

Short- and Long-run Technical Efficiency Analysis : Application to Ethiopian Manufacturing Firms

Mengistu, Yismaw Ayelign - 2019

This study attempts to investigate the level of transient and persistent technical efficiencies of large- and medium-scale manufacturing establishments in Ethiopia. A stochastic frontier approach was used for Cobb–Douglas production technology and a panel data set (1996–2015) was developed...

Nested Stochastic Possibility Frontiers with Heterogeneous Capital Inputs

Erber, Georg - 2008

This paper studies the productivity impact of heterogeneous capital inputs of selected EU-15 member countries and of the U.S. at the macroeconomic level. The stochastic possibility frontiers approach of Battese and Coelli (1992) applied here is used to identify neutralities or nonneutralities...
