Our first finding highlights that these new trade flows are an important margin for firms of all size … classes, accounting for approximately 62% of their overall trade flows. Classifying new trade flows into going …

Using firm and industry data, we establish two facts: (i) Uncertainty about demand conditions not only reduces export … sales and exporting probabilities but also makes exports less sensitive to trade policy; (ii) the most productive exporters … regularities by developing a new firmbased trade model wherein managers are risk averse.

EPPs across sectors, and hence across countries, can be explained by the variation in productivity dispersion, trade costs …Why is it that exporter productivity premia (EPP) differ so widely in size? We take this question to the theory and to … the data. We derive the sectoral EPP in a standard heterogeneous firms trade model and apply the insights from the model …

This paper provides a direct test of how fixed export costs and productivity jointly determine firm-level export …, while those with higher productivity export more. These outcomes are the foundation of the widely-used sorting mechanism in … the trade models with firm heterogeneity. A particular and novel finding is that high-productivity nonexporters face …

To this end, product-level restrictive TBTs …

We show … dispersion, the distribution of export intensity has two modes in the boundaries of the support and their height is determined by …
