Defever, F. & Suedekum, J. (2014). Financial liberalization and the relationship-specificity of exports. Economics Letters, 122(3), pp. 375-379. doi: 10.1016/j.econlet.2013.12.034

Abstract

We investigate the causal impact of equity market liberalizations on sectoral export performance across 91 countries (1980-1997). The increased availability of external finance has boosted trade of industries that intensively use relationship-specific inputs, and lowered exports of industries using standardized inputs.
