Patterns of Intermediate Consumption and Productivity in the Knowledge Intensive Business Services in Transition Economies

Year, pages: 2004, 298 - 314

This paper analyses development of the knowledge intensive business services (KIBS) in the Czech and Slovak Republics and Hungary. It examines patterns of KIBS intermediate consumption and looks at the role of KIBS as a factor of production. It compares value added-based and gross output-based production functions for KIBS in aggregate and labour-intensive forms. The paper also relates foreign trade in KIBS to entry by the multinational companies into transition economies and integration of these economies to global markets.
