Cross-countries differences in exporting perfomance, and differences in productivity, wages and innovation rates between exporting and non-exporting firms in Brazil
In this research we investigate whether more technologically complex countries have better trade perfomance and whether exporting firms in Brazil tend to perform better in terms of productivity, innovation and wages when compared with non-exporting firms.

| Summary: | In this research we investigate whether more technologically complex countries have better trade perfomance and whether exporting firms in Brazil tend to perform better in terms of productivity, innovation and wages when compared with non-exporting firms. For that, we employed formal tests for distributional equality as proposed by Fligner and Policello (1981). Results show that most technologically complex countries tend to have better trade perfomance and exporting firms tend to perform better in terms of productivity and pay higher average wages when compared with non-exporting firms. However, tests for innovation perfomance differences between exporting and non-exporting firms are inconclusive. |
