【主题】Why doesn’t technology flow from rich to poor countries (written by Harold L. Cole, Jeremy Greenwood, and Juan M. Sanchez, Working Paper, 2012)

　　　　【摘要】What determines the technology that a country adopts While there could be many factors, the efficiency of the country’s financial system may play a significant role. To address this question, a dynamic contract model is embedded into a general equilibrium setting with competitive intermediation. The ability of an intermediary to monitor and control the cash flows of a firm plays an impor- tant role in a firm’s decision to adopt a technology. Can such a theory help to explain the differences in total factor productivity and establishment-size dis- tributions across India, Mexico, and the U.S. Applied analysis suggests that answer is yes.
