| Summary: | This paper investigates the association between intra-industry trade (!IT) for foreign, private domestic and public domestic companies in Poland and the size o f multinational activity measured by the stock o f FD!. Using a unique database on imports and exports from companies in Poland 1993-2002 divided along three ownership types, the paper finds in a pooled regression model a positive association between the size of foreign presence and the level of!ITfor foreign-owned companies, but no significant spill-over effects from foreign presence to the level and development of!ITfor private and public domestic companies. A negative !IT growth for private and public companies and a small positive growth for foreign-owned companies in science-based industries indicate that advanced technological spill-over effects to the Polish economy are still in their infancy. |
