This paper analyzes endogenous fluctuations in total factor productivity (TFP) in a dynamic general equilibrium model with heterogeneous agents, and illustrates the interaction of credit market frictions, asset prices, the entry and exit of firms, and fluctuations in TFP in response to firm-level productivity and aggregate credit-market shocks. I also analyze the effect of bankruptcy and foreclosure laws on fluctuations in TFP through their effect on credit market frictions.2007-03-04T16:48:20+00:00enFirms Dynamics, Bankruptcy Laws and Total Factor Productivity2007-03-04Financial stabilityProductivityWorking Paper 2007-17 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/wp07-17.pdfFirms Dynamics, Bankruptcy Laws and Total Factor ProductivityHajime TomuraMarch 2007DD2D24EE4E44GG3G33Exporting and FDI with Endogenous Productivity

This paper provides an analysis of how a firm’s decision to serve a foreign market by exporting or by engaging in foreign direct investment (FDI) affects firm productivity, when productivity is endogeneous as a function of training. The main result of our paper is that, with endogeneous productivity, exporting results in lower productivity than does FDI, but exporting may result in higher or lower employment and output than does FDI.2007-03-01T15:31:05+00:00enExporting and FDI with Endogenous Productivity2007-03-01International topicsLabour marketsProductivityWorking Paper 2007-14 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/wp07-14.pdfExporting and FDI with Endogenous ProductivityOana SecrieruMarianne VigneaultMarch 2007FF2F22F23
