“…Using the same methodology and annual one‐digit sectoral data for eight European countries, Bayoumi and Prasad (1997) estimate variance shares of 19%, 16%, 18%, and 47% for European, country‐specific, industry‐specific, and idiosyncratic shocks. With a data set comprising annual data for 19 OECD countries and 25 two‐digit industries, Funke et al.
