Der Produktivitätsrat lädt zu einem PROD-Webinar mit folgendem Titel ein: "Merchanting and processing in Danish manufacturing firms?" Webinar von Nicolai Kaarsen, DØRS - Danish Economic Councils 19.06.2024, 15-16 Uhr Teilnahme über Webex ohne Anmeldung: https://oenb.webex.com/oenb/j.php?MTID=ma14ca1e52128dde4017cea7fa4981dac Abstract: During the past 20 years, Danish firms have increased their exports of goods produced abroad that never cross the Danish border (so-called merchanting and processing activities). We find that the increase is driven by a handful of superstar manufacturing firms who have expanded globally using production in other countries. The rise of these superstars and their expanded foreign activities explain a substantial share of Danish productivity growth in recent years and also drive an increase in markups and a decrease in the labor share. Besides the analysis, the presentation will include a brief overview of the main policy recommendations and comments on recent Danish productivity policy from the 2024 productivity report.
