This paper estimates the impact of relative price volatility on sector-level investment allocation using a panel of 65 countries with data for 26 manufacturing industries over the period 1985–2003. Results indicate that volatility distorts efficient investment allocation in that investment is...

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...
