Abstract: | This paper presents empirical evidence on the role of foreign presence in the performance of domestic manufacturing firms
in five Central and Eastern European countries. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used to estimate a frontier for each sector
with similar technology common for five transition countries in the sample − Bulgaria, Estonia, Hungary, Poland and Romania.
Following Simar and Wilson (J Econom 136(1):31–64, 2007), this study applies a truncated regression and bootstrap technique in a second stage post-DEA analysis. Some evidence is
found to support the hypothesis that foreign presence has an overall positive spillover effects on the performance of domestic
firms. |
