Description

The project examines whether access to finance – relationship lending, supply chain finance, and trade credit – enables firms integrated in global value chains (GVCs) to mitigate the negative employment effects of adverse supply chain shocks. Extending the methodology of Murro, Oliviero, and Zazzaro (2023), regression models are estimated in which the interaction between GVC shocks and firm financial conditions is the key variable, with attention to heterogeneity by firm size, sector, and institutional context.
