Endogenous transport costs and international trade
In this paper, we model a manufacturing and a transport sector and use export volumes to determine the demand for transport services. If trade exceeds a particular level, transport service suppliers maximise profit by investing in an advanced transport technology, which lowers their marginal costs and reduces equilibrium transport prices. Transport costs thus vary according to two characteristics: the distance between two locations and the endoge…
The Few Leading the Many
This paper argues that the correlation of business cycles across countries is largely due to linkages between multinational firms and their foreign affiliates. There are very few foreign affiliates in France, but they contribute considerably to aggregate economic activities. We exploit the heterogeneity in the presence and origin of foreign affiliates across French regions to identify their impact on comovement. We find a positive impact of forei…
Cross‐border and Foreign Affiliate Sales of Services
We merge German balance‐of‐payments and foreign‐affiliate‐trade statistics to obtain data about trade in commercial services at the firm level. We use these data to study export market participation and the choice of export mode: cross‐border versus foreign affiliate sales. We find that for firms in our sample productivity is both a statistically significant and economically important determinant of the export participation and export mode choice…
Production versus distribution-oriented FDI
Spillovers from Multinationals to Heterogeneous Domestic Firms
Firms cluster their economic activities to exploit technological and informational spillovers from other firms. Spillovers from multinational firms can be particularly beneficial to firms in less developed economies, because technological superiority and management expertise of foreign multinational firms yield various opportunities for learning. Yet, the importance of foreign firms’ spillovers might vary with respect to two key features of domes…

Megafusionen
Seit Mitte der neunziger Jahre ist nicht nur das Fusionsvolumen kräftig angestiegen, es sind auch immer mehr und immer größere Unternehmenszusammenschlüsse zu beobachten. Jörn Kleinert und Henning Klodt zeigen, welche Bedeutung Globalisierung, Deregulierung und Konsolidierung in einigen Wirtschaftszweigen für diese Entwicklung haben. Als Gründe für Fusionen können aus theoretischer Sicht neben der Gewinnsteigerung durch größere Marktmacht vor all…
