Firms in international trade

Article Abstract:

The shift in the field of international trade from countries to industries, to firms and products are discussed. Trading firms are more productive than nontrading firms because they are able to overcome the costs of entering new markets. Reallocation and specialization plays a vital role in enhancing productivity and profitability.
