What is it about?

This paper investigates the systematic differences between exporting and non-exporting firms, based on the assumption that an exporting firm is a competitive firm. We use firm-level financial data of Greek manufacturing firms from selected exporting manufacturing sectors.

Why is it important?

The results are, in most cases, in line with those found in other studies in other countries, identifying the profile of exporting firms with respect to performance and strategic measures. The study findings also suggest that large differences do exist in drivers of competitiveness across Greek manufacturing industry sectors.

Perspectives

The novelty of this study is the identification of systematic differences between exporting and purely domestic firms in Greek manufacturing sectors, based on firm-level data, both quantitative and qualitative.
