Off-shoring and productivity growth in the Italian manufacturing industries (2008, background): “The only cross-country study we are aware of is due to Egger and Egger (2006), where the relation between off-shoring (as such) and productivity is negative in the short run and positive in the long run.”
Productivity Impacts of Offshoring and Outsourcing: A Review (2006, background): “ Egger and Egger (2001b) and Amiti and Wei (2006, 2004b) study the effect of offshore outsourcing on an aggregated level looking at the European Union and the United States, respectively.”
Trends in production relocation and backshoring activities (2012, background): “new Eastern European Community Countries (EECC)[1] have accelerated the dynamics of this development (Egger and Egger, 2006; Kinkel et al., 2007; UNCTAD, 2005, 2007).”
Economic upgrading through global value chain participation: which policies increase the value-added gains? (2017, background): “Focusing on low-skilled workers, Egger and Egger (2006) found a U-shaped labor productivity effect from materials offshoring in the manufacturing sectors of 12 EU countries between 1993 and 1997.”
Fear of Service Outsourcing: Is it Justified? (2004, unknown): “Egger and Egger (2001) find that there is a negative effect of international material outsourcing on the productivity of low-skilled workers in the short run, but a positive effect in the long run.”
DOES OFFSHORING PAY? FIRM‐LEVEL EVIDENCE FROM JAPAN (2010, unknown): “Egger and Egger (2006) analyze how international outsourcing affects the productivity of low-skilled workers employed in the EU manufacturing sector.”
Does vertical specialisation increase productivity? (2017, unknown): “Contributions include older strands of work focusing on benefits to countries that initiate offshoring (Feenstra and Hanson 1996; Egger and Egger 2006; Amiti and Wei 2009; Winkler 2010), but also recent efforts that analyze the impact of vertical specialization on countries participating in GVCs…”
Global Value Chains and the Productivity of Canadian Manufacturing Firms (2014, background): “Work based on industry-level data find some evidence of productivity gains resulting from material offshoring, (Egger and Egger 2006; Amiti and Wei 2009; Daveri and Jona-Lasinio 2008).”
The Relationship Between Global Value Chains and Productivity (2017, result): “These build upon earlier studies using industry-level measures of offshoring from the perspective of the offshoring country (e.g. Egger and Egger, 2006; Amiti and Wei, 2009; Winkler, 2010).”
