欧盟国家对产品市场进行了广泛的改革，以刺激竞争、创新和经济增长。我们提供的经验证据表明，根据欧盟单一市场计划(SMP)进行的改革与产品市场竞争的加剧有关，以平均盈利能力的下降为衡量标准，并随之而来的是制造业的创新强度和生产率增长。我们的分析利用不同国家和行业SMP预期影响的外生差异来确定改革对平均盈利能力的影响，以及盈利能力对创新和生产率增长的影响。
European Union countries have implemented widespread reforms to product markets to stimulate competition, innovation, and economic growth. We provide empirical evidence that the reforms carried out under the EU Single Market Programme (SMP) were associated with increased product market competition, as measured by a reduction in average profitability, and with a subsequent increase in innovation intensity and productivity growth for manufacturing sectors. Our analysis exploits exogenous variation in the expected impact of the SMP across countries and industries to identify the effects of reforms on average profitability, and the effects of profitability on innovation and productivity growth.
