This paper estimates the impact of financial development on industry-level total factor productivity (TFP) growth using a largely unexploited panel of 77 countries with data for 26 manufacturing industries for the years 1963 to 2003. A significant relationship is found between financial...

We estimate the impact of financial development on industry-level TFP growth using a largely unexploited panel of 77 countries with data for 26 manufacturing industries for the years 1963 to 2003. We find a significant relationship between financial development and industry-level TFP growth when...
