Trading Effects of the FIFA World Cup
研究了参加FIFA世界杯对参赛国向主办国出口的促进作用,以及主办国与参赛国之间贸易高于其他国家的现象,并提供了动态估计和解释渠道。
Summary This study analyzes the trading effects of FIFA World Cup in two dimensions. First, we show that participating in the World Cup significantly increases exports from the participant countries to the host countries, relative to a control group of non‐participants. Second, we demonstrate that trade is reasonably higher for host‐participant pairs compared to other country pairs. We also provide dynamic estimates for both cases and offer plausible arguments and important channels for our findings.
