The knowledge-capital model acknowledges that FDI has both vertical as well as horizontal elements. However, there is much controversy with regard to the empirical relevance of vertical FDI. We re-investigate this issue by looking at FDI at a more disaggregated level, using data on bilateral FDI...

Why is it that exporter productivity premia (EPP) differ so widely in size? We take this question to the theory and to the data. We derive the sectoral EPP in a standard heterogeneous firms trade model and apply the insights from the model to 13 years of data for all Danish manufacturing firms....

The paper compares different estimation strategies of ordered response models in the presence of non-random unobserved heterogeneity. By running Monte Carlo simulations with a range of randomly generated panel data of differing cross-sectional and longitudinal dimension sizes, we assess the...
