Antolin, Miguel Manjon

Export intensity and the productivity gains of exporting created by Miguel Manjón Antolín , Juan A. Máñez , María E. Rochina Barrachina and Juan A. Sanchis Llopis - Applied economics letters Volume 20, number 9 .

This article analyses whether the productivity gains associated with Learning-by-Exporting (LBE) (controlling for self-selection) depend on the intensity of the firm's exporting activity. The results from a representative sample of Spanish manufacturing firms indicate that the yearly average gains in productivity are larger for those firms that increase their export-to-sales ratio.
