Does Institutional Similarity Necessarily Lead to Increased Bilateral Trade?
To shed light on the question of whether or not institutional similarity always increases bilateral trade, we divide institutional quality into the low level (one standard deviation below the mean), medium level (in between minus one and one standard deviation from the mean), and high level (one standard deviation above the mean). By applying the system-GMM estimator, we found that the institutional similarity between the two countries has a trade-boosting effect, except in cases where one or both countries have low-institutional quality. These imply that measures to enhance institutional similarity must be accompanied by policies to promote institutional adaptability.
期刊介绍:
Journal of International Commerce, Economics and Policy (JICEP) is a peer-reviewed journal that seeks to publish high-quality research papers that explore important dimensions of the global economic system (including trade, finance, investment and labor flows). JICEP is particularly interested in potentially influential research that is analytical or empirical but with heavy emphasis on international dimensions of economics, business and related public policy. Papers must aim to be thought-provoking and combine rigor with readability so as to be of interest to both researchers as well as policymakers. JICEP is not region-specific and especially welcomes research exploring the growing economic interdependence between countries and regions.
