Abstract

In this research we assess the market selection effects on productivity and firm growth. Using data on more than 22 000 manufacturing firms in the Urals Federal District over the period from 2006 to 2017, we conduct aggregated labor productivity decomposition at the industry level and then proceed to estimate the expiatory power of the productivity components on revenue growth. Obtained estimates are compared between two periods – before the international sanctions on Russia and after that. Results of both approaches suggest overall weak role of market selection in the UFD for the whole observation period. We also fail to find statistically significant differences between two considered periods. We conclude that the sanctions have had mixed impact on the effectiveness of the market selection processes. While in some industries, the estimates on the strength of market selection have considerably risen; in other industries, we observe the opposite situation.
