Can multinationals withstand growing trade barriers?
Ghodsi, Mahdi; Vujanović, Nina; Landesmann, Michael - 2024
Multinational enterprises (MNEs) are increasingly dealing with challenges shaped by the new geopolitical and trade environments. Besides traditional tariffs, exporting firms need to comply with regulatory non-tariff measures (NTMs) in the form of technical barriers to trade (TBTs) and sanitary...

The WTO Global Trade Costs Index and its determinants
Rubínová, Stela; Sebti, Mehdi - 2021 - Manuscript date: 18 January 2021
This study provides a decomposition of the WTO Global Trade Costs Index into five policy-relevant components: transport and travel costs; information and transaction costs; ICT connectedness; trade policy and regulatorydifferences; and governance quality. The WTO Global Trade CostsIndex is based...

Distorted trade barriers : a comment on "distorted gravity"
Cole, Matthew T. - 2010
Since firm heterogeneity has been introduced into international trade models, the importance of firm entry and exit (the extensive margin) has been highlighted. Thomas Chaney (2008) illustrates how accounting for heterogenous firms (and this extensive margin) alters the standard gravity...

Trade Flows, Multilateral Resistance, and Firm Heterogeneity
Behar, Alberto - 2013
We present a gravity model that accounts for multilateral resistance, firm heterogeneity and country-selection into trade, while accommodating asymmetries in trade flows. A new equation for the proportion of exporting firms takes a gravity form, such that the extensive margin is also affected by...

'Dual' Gravity : Using Spatial Econometrics to Control for Multilateral Resistance
Behrens, Kristian - 2007
We propose a quantity-based 'dual' version of the gravity equation that yields an estimating equation with both cross-sectional interdependence and spatially lagged error terms. Such an equation can be concisely estimated using spatial econometric techniques. We illustrate this methodology by...

Quantifying Disruptive Trade Policies
Balistreri, Edward J. - 2019
Mainstream economic wisdom favoring cooperative free trade is challenged by a wave of disruptive trade policies. In this paper, we provide quantitative evidence concerning the economic impacts of tariffs implemented by the United States in 2018 and the subsequent retaliations by partner...

The trade effects of anti-dumping duties, non-tarif barriers and maritime security : gravity applications
Sandkamp, Alexander-Nikolai - 2020
This dissertation was prepared by Alexander-Nikolai Sandkamp, completed in September 2018 and first published online by LMU Munich in February 2019. It consists of four selfcontained chapters that empirically investigate different trade dampening phenomena using gravity analysis. The first two...
