productivity growth within the period and very little evidence that exporting growth has a causal effect on subsequent TFP growth. … acyclic or cyclic - imported from the machine learning literature, to revisit a well-known debate. Does exporting increase … firm productivity? Or is it only more productive firms that remain in the export market? We focus on a relatively well …

Most of the empirical studies on the micro-level effects of exporting on productivity pay little attention to the … potentially heterogeneous effects of the different modes of export market entry. We study how productivity of firms is affected by … markets or with several products leads to higher growth in productivity, compared with entry into only one foreign market or …

Using a matching approach, we compare the productivity trajectories of future exporters and matched and unmatched non …-exporters. Future exporters have higher productivity than do unmatched non-exporters before entry into the export market, which … indicates self-selection into exports. More interestingly, we also find a productivity increase among future exporters relative …

Instead, we find evidence of learning-by-exporting whereby exporting improves technical … efficiency. First, treatment firms have higher productivity and quality after accounting for rug specifications. Second, when …
