Heterogeneous economic integration agreement effects
Baier, Scott L.; Bergstrand, Jeffrey H.; Clance, Matthew W. - 2015
Gravity equations have been used for more than 50 years to estimate ex post the partial effects of trade costs on international trade flows, and the well-known - and traditionally presumed exogenous - "trade-cost elasticity" plays a central role in computing general equilibrium trade-flow and...

On the widely differing effects of free trade agreements : lessons from twenty years of trade integration
Baier, Scott L.; Yotov, Yoto V.; Zylkin, Thomas - 2016
We develop a novel two-stage methodology that allows us to study the empirical determinants of the ex post effects of past free trade agreements (FTAs) as well as obtain ex ante predictions for the effects of future FTAs. We first identify 908 unique estimates of the effects of FTAs on different...

Reduced 'Border Effects', FTAs and International Trade
Franco, Sebastian - 2018
This paper studies the role of reduced barriers to international trade from two dimensions: (i) the implementation of Free Trade Agreements and (ii) declining "border effects". Our empirical estimates suggest that diminished border effects accounts for the bulk of the increase in international...

Global trade in final goods and intermediate inputs : impact of FTAs and reduced "border effects"
Franco-Bedoya, Sebastian; Frohm, Erik - 2020
International trade in manufacturing goods has risen strongly over the past decades, contributing to the expansion of global value chains (GVCs). This paper studies how two factors contributed to this rise since 1970: (i) declining "border effects" that are arguably related to the ICT revolution...

On the Bilateral Trade Effects of Free Trade Agreements between the EU-15 and the CEEC-4 Countries
Caporale, Guglielmo Maria - 2008
The expansion of regionalism has spawned an extensive theoretical literature analysing the effects of Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) on trade flows. In this paper we focus on FTAs (also called European agreements) between the European Union (EU-15) and the Central and Eastern European countries...
