FDI and the Dynamics of Productivity in Indonesian Manufacturing
利用纵向数据研究印尼制造业生产率增长,发现增长主要来自市场份额重新分配和工厂更替,外国直接投资对生产率的贡献与外资产出份额大致相当。
This article examines productivity growth in the Indonesian manufacturing sector. We use a longitudinal data set to calculate the effects on aggregate manufacturing productivity growth from improvements within establishments, from reallocation of market shares, and from the turnover of plants. Productivity growth is mainly explained by reallocation of market shares and from turnover of plants. Moreover, the foreign contribution to productivity growth is unclear and depends on the choice of productivity measure. A cautious conclusion is that the foreign contribution is about the same size as the foreign share of manufacturing output. Finally, there is a difference in the causes of productivity growth between foreign and domestic plants.
