本文使用年度受访者数据库的数据，考察了1997-2008年英国外资工厂和企业对总全要素生产率（TFP）增长的贡献。不同子组的贡献被进一步分解，以显示连续工厂维斯于产出份额再分配的作用。全要素生产率是使用系统GMM估计计算的。考虑到1997年外资部门的初始规模较小，外资工厂在此期间对总生产率增长的贡献相对大于英国工厂。这种强劲的表现主要是由于将产出份额重新分配给高生产率的持续工厂和高生产率工厂的开设。
This paper considers the contribution of foreign‐owned plants and firms to aggregate total factor productivity (TFP) growth in Britain for 1997–2008 using data from the Annual Respondents' Database. The contribution of different sub‐groups is further decomposed to show the role of continuing plants vis‐a‐vis reallocations in output shares. TFP is calculated using system GMM estimation. Taking into account the smaller initial size of the foreign‐owned sector in 1997, foreign‐owned plants contributed relatively more to aggregate productivity growth than UK‐owned plants over the period. This strong performance is mostly the result of reallocations of output shares towards high productivity continuing plants and the opening of high productivity plants.
