Firm-Level Determinants of Export Performance: Evidence from the Philippines

Key Points

Export performance is influenced by firm characteristics, such as size and age, affecting competitiveness in global markets.
Using a novel econometric model, the study employs a modified quasi-maximum likelihood method to analyze data.
The research highlights the significance of foreign affiliation in improving firms' export capabilities in the Philippines.
Firm size is a critical factor in determining export performance, suggesting policy implications for support and growth.

Abstract

The paper determines the factors affecting the export performance of firms in three main manufacturing sectors in the Philippines. Specifically, firm-level characteristics like firm size, firm age, and foreign affiliation are identified and statistically tested to determine if they affect a firm's capability to export. The study uses a novel econometric model that specifically addresses fractional response behavior and estimates the model using a modified quasi-maximum likelihood procedure.
