This paper investigates the effect of conflicts on firms' output value and input misallocation in the context of Palestine during the Second Intifada. Using a unique establishment-level dataset, we firms' outcomes and input usage over time across districts experiencing differential changes in...

We study the effect of conflict on firms’ economic performance and explore the underlying mechanisms. Combining an original panel dataset of Libyan firms with geolocalized data on conflict events, we build a firm-specific measure of conflict exposure and use its within-firm variation to show...

In this work we investigate two crucial dimensions of firms' structure and dynamics, that is profitability and productivity performance. The empirical distributions and the associated persistence over time are explored through a set of parametric and non parametric exercises performed on an...

The study of firms' default has attracted wide interest among both practitioners and scholars. However, attention has often been limited to a relatively small set of financial variables. In this work, we try to increase the scope of analysis extending the investigation to other possible...
