We examine the contribution to labor productivity growth in the manufacturing sector of investment in different intangible asset categories—computerized information, innovative property, and economic competencies—for a set of 18 European countries between 1995 and 2017, as well as whether this contribution varies between different groups of countries. The motivation is to go a step further and identify which single or combination of intangible assets are relevant. The main findings can be summarized as follows. Firstly, all the three different categories of intangible assets contribute to labor productivity growth. In particular, intangible assets related to economic competences together with innovative property assets have been identified as the main drivers; specifically, advertising and marketing, organizational capital, research and development (R&D) investment, and design. Secondly, splitting the sample of European Union (EU) member states into three groups—northern, central and southern Europe—allows for the identification of a significant differentiated behavior between and within groups, in terms of the effects of investment in intangible assets on labor productivity growth. We conclude that measures promoting investment in intangibles at EU level should be accompanied by specific measures focusing on each country’s needs, for the purpose of promoting labor productivity growth. The obtained evidence suggests that the solution for the innovation deficit of some European economies consist not only of raising R&D expenditure, but also exploiting complementarities between different types of assets.

无形资产与劳动生产率的增长

我们研究了1995年至2017年期间一组18个欧洲国家对不同无形资产类别(计算机信息,创新财产和经济能力)的投资对制造业劳动生产率增长的贡献,以及该贡献在不同的国家集团。其动机是更进一步,确定哪些无形资产或无形资产是相关的。主要发现可归纳如下。首先,三种不同类别的无形资产均对劳动生产率的增长做出了贡献。特别是,已将与经济能力有关的无形资产与创新性房地产资产一起确定为主要驱动力;特别是广告和营销,组织资本,研发(R&D)投资和设计。其次,将欧盟成员国的样本划分为三个组(北欧,中欧和南欧),以便根据无形资产投资对劳动力的影响,确定群体之间以及群体内部的显着差异行为。生产力增长。我们得出结论,在欧盟一级促进无形资产投资的措施应辅之以针对每个国家需求的具体措施,以促进劳动生产率的增长。获得的证据表明,解决欧洲一些经济体创新不足的办法不仅包括增加研发支出,而且还应利用不同类型资产之间的互补性。将欧洲联盟(EU)成员国的样本分为三个组-北,中欧和南欧-允许根据对无形资产的投资对劳动生产率增长的影响,确定各组之间和组内的显着差异行为。 。我们得出结论,在欧盟一级促进无形资产投资的措施应辅之以针对每个国家需求的具体措施,以促进劳动生产率的增长。获得的证据表明,解决欧洲一些经济体创新不足的办法不仅包括增加研发支出,而且还应利用不同类型资产之间的互补性。将欧洲联盟(EU)成员国的样本分为三个组-北,中欧和南欧-允许根据对无形资产的投资对劳动生产率增长的影响,确定各组之间和组内的显着差异行为。 。我们得出结论,在欧盟一级促进无形资产投资的措施应辅之以针对每个国家需求的具体措施,以促进劳动生产率的增长。获得的证据表明,解决欧洲一些经济体创新不足的办法不仅包括增加研发支出,而且还应利用不同类型资产之间的互补性。中欧和南欧-允许根据无形资产投资对劳动生产率增长的影响,识别群体之间和群体内部的显着差异行为。我们得出结论,在欧盟一级促进无形资产投资的措施应辅之以针对每个国家需求的具体措施,以促进劳动生产率的增长。获得的证据表明,解决欧洲一些经济体创新不足的办法不仅包括增加研发支出,而且还应利用不同类型资产之间的互补性。中欧和南欧-允许根据无形资产投资对劳动生产率增长的影响,识别群体之间和群体内部的显着差异行为。我们得出结论,在欧盟一级促进无形资产投资的措施应辅之以针对每个国家需求的具体措施,以促进劳动生产率的增长。获得的证据表明,解决欧洲一些经济体创新不足的办法不仅包括增加研发支出,而且还应利用不同类型资产之间的互补性。我们得出结论,在欧盟一级促进无形资产投资的措施应辅之以针对每个国家需求的具体措施,以促进劳动生产率的增长。获得的证据表明,解决欧洲一些经济体创新不足的办法不仅包括增加研发支出,而且还应利用不同类型资产之间的互补性。我们得出结论,在欧盟一级促进无形资产投资的措施应辅之以针对每个国家需求的具体措施,以促进劳动生产率的增长。获得的证据表明,解决欧洲一些经济体创新不足的办法不仅包括增加研发支出,而且还应利用不同类型资产之间的互补性。
