Cet essai étudie quelques aspects importants à propos de la migration du commerce entre les pays localisés dans la zone Euro-Méditerranéenne. Il se concentre sur le rôle des liaisons historiques et les questions de proximité entre les pays afin de favoriser les effets du commerce des migrants. Plus spécifiquement, ce travail adresse l’effet des grandes relations historiques bilatérales sur la taille de pro-commerce et la création de nouveaux échanges commerciaux, tout en assurant un plus grand nombre d’interactions sociales entre les migrants et les originaires du pays en question. Ceci est en addition au rôle des caractéristiques des immigrants ainsi que leurs expériences personnelles (intégration sociale) pour former des effets commerciaux.
Abstract :
In this paper we study the determinants of export performance of firms in selected MENA countries jointly and separately and compare them to the performance of firms from Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries. The analysis is based on information on individual firms contained in the BEEPS V data base, and covers the period of 2011-2014. We estimate the probability of exports controlling for country and sector specific effects using the probit model. We find that in both groups of countries similar variables affect firm export performance. Our empirical results obtained for the MENA and CEE countries indicate that the probability of exporting is positively related to the level of productivity, firm size, spending on research and development, the share of university graduates in productive employment and the internationalization of firms. State ownership and the perception of corruption by firms are mostly not statistically significant. The results obtained for the two groups of countries are statistically not very different, but enough to have some policy implications while results for particular countries and sub-groups of countries reveal a large degree of heterogeneity.
