normative effects of offshoring: trade in tasks increases productivity of active firms and improves welfare in the offshoring …Offshoring has gained a significant momentum in recent years. Firm size appears to be the leading factor … differentiating firms that offshore from those that do not. We present a model that blends offshoring, or trade in tasks, with a …

We set up a model of offshoring with heterogeneous producers that captures two empirical regularities of German … offshoring firms. There is selection of larger, more productive firms into offshoring. However, the selection is not sharp, and … offshoring and non-offshoring firms coexist over a wide range of the revenue distribution. An overlap of offshoring and non-offshoring …
