An evaluation of production efficiency of ICT sectors in the EU: a stochastic frontier approach to malmquist productivity index
Original language description
The aim of this paper is to assess the efficiency of ICT sectors (manufacturing, trade, service) in nine EU countries and time period 2001-2011. A translog stochastic production frontier with timevarying efficiencies is estimated. The capital positivelyinfluence value added in ICT manufacturing and ICT trade sector while labor has statistically significant impact on value added only in ICT trade sector. It seems that in EU ICT sectors there isn't a substitute relation between the capital and labor. Theperformance was evaluated based on Malmquist productivity index. ICT service sector was the only sector, where the productivity grew in the whole period, but the trend of MPI was declining. MPI's of ICT manufacturing and ICT trade sector were lower or equal to 1, productivity of these sectors is stagnating and declining. From the comparison of the efficiency of selected EU countries it is evident, that the countries with most efficient ICT sectors are Slovenia, Finland and Germany. Thes
