“…Danquah et al (2014) also documented a significant relationship between TFP and trade openness. Porter and Stern (2000), Eaton and Kortum (2001) found a negative association between trade openness, TFP and rate of innovation, which relates to the trade-off between technological efficiency and technical progress as they affect TFP growth (Valdes, 1999;Helpman & Rangel, 1999;Badunenko et al, 2008;Makiela, 2009).…”

“…All the results are obtained from MM-quantile regression with parameters in location and scale functions. One of the benefits of the MM-quantile estimate is that it can be applied to read non-linearity or polynomial functions in the model (Chernozhukov & Hansen, 2008;Canay, 2011;Polemis, 2019). It also allows us to estimate the model for the case of fixed effects.…”

This paper examines the impact of global value chain (GVC) participation on total factor productivity in African economies. The analysis is based on panel corrected standard errors, IV-estimation technique and the novel Method of Moment (MM)-panel quantile regression. The results reveal that there is positive and significant relationship between global value chain and total factor productivity in African economies. Specifically, we discover that the impact of GVC participation on total factor productivity is positive and significant. This result is consistent across all the quartiles after employing MM-panel quartile regression. The coefficients of global value chains improve as we approach a higher quantile. The study concludes that GVC participation allows access to a larger global market which local firms may explore to gain from scale economies, and to learn using modern technology and innovations. It facilitates connections to cheaper and quality inputs for domestic production, while efficiency is guaranteed.

Market competition and institutional regulation has been long regarded as a force that can improve productivity in the economy. Nevertheless, it is still unclear whether market competition and institutional regulation that governs the market can affect the performance of large construction firms (LCF) in Malaysia in terms of productivity. It is important because productivity performance is best known to measure long-term economic performance, improving competitiveness and living standards. In response, this paper aims to discuss and present a conceptual model that links the constructs of market competition, institutional regulation, and their interactions with firm-level construction productivity. In addition, this paper also evaluates methods to measure these variables and model their relationships based on appropriate theoretical and statistical considerations. It is expected that this study has both theoretical and practical implications. Therefore, it could help with theoretical propositions between constructs studied, which can be tested in the future. It is anticipated future research could help with theoretical and policy implications regarding market competition and institutional regulation that could improve LCF's long-run productivity performance based on sustainable economic incentives.

“…Farklı teknikler kullanılarak yapılan çalışmaların sonuçlarında genel olarak, rekabet ve toplam faktör verimliliği arasında ters-U şeklinde bir ilişki ortaya konulmaktadır (Aghion vd., 2005;Van Reenen, 2011;Marshall ve Parra 2019). Doğrusal olmayan ters-U şeklindeki ilişki, belli bir dönün noktasının (eşik değer) ötesine geçildiğinde piyasa yoğunlaşmasının giderek artması ve bunun sonucunda rekabetin ortadan kalkarak TFP büyümesinin azalması anlamına gelmektedir (Polemis, 2020). Bu çalışmada, kullanılan rekabet göstergesi (Lerner) rekabet artışı şeklinde tanımlandığı için (1-Lerner), eşik değerin ötesine geçildiğinde yoğunlaşma azalmakta ve rekabet artmaktadır (Şayet, orijinal Lerner indeksi değerleri kullanılsaydı, eşik değerin üzeri rekabet azalışını gösterecekti).…”
