SUPERSTARS OR SUPER-VILLAINS? PRODUCTIVITY SPILLOVERS AND FIRM DYNAMICS IN INDONESIA

Do industrial “superstars” help others up or crowd them out? We examine the relationship between the spillovers of superstar firms (those with the top market share in their industry) and the productivity dynamics in Indonesia. Employing data on Indonesian manufacturing firms from 2001 to 2015, we find that superstar exposures in the market raise both the productivity level and the growth of non-superstar firms through horizontal (within a sector-province) and vertical (across sectors) channels.
