One of the key determinants of potential growth are productivity gains. Total factor productivity (TFP) differences are …: the aggregate productivity loss from microeconomic distortions that prevent factors of production from being allocated to … key driver of productivity gains.

We use a meta-analysis to quantify the impact of misallocation of production factors on aggregate productivity. A key … estimate in empirical studies on misal- location is the implied aggregate total factor productivity (TFP) loss due to the sub …-optimal allocation of resources across firms. In our meta-analysis, we corre- late this effect size with various study characteristics …
