FIRM PERFORMANCE PRODUCTIVITY GROWTH SPILLOVER EFFECT VERTICAL LINKAGES INPUT DEMAND INTERMEDIATE INPUTS How do high-growth firms affect the rest of the economy? This paper explores this question using Hungarian administrative microdata. It finds evidence of stronger productivity growth for firms supplying and operating in industries with more high-growth firms. The surge of high-growth firms' demand for intermediate inputs could explain this positive vertical spillover. Firms with intermediate productivity levels seem most likely to benefit from this effect. The results hold irrespective of the level of spatial aggregation. 2018-11-12T21:39:59Z 2018-11-12T21:39:59Z 2018-11 Working Paper http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/354231541772081338/High-Growth-Firms-Rising-Tide-Lifts-All-Boats http://hdl.handle.net/10986/30848 English Policy Research Working Paper;No. 8642 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Policy Research Working Paper Europe and Central Asia Hungary
