1 Stylised facts on firm entry-exit and age, and their relatioships with size-growth dynamics IE/LEM, Scuola Superiore Sant Anna IDPE
2 Where are we? References
3 Outline References Entry, exit, survival Entry/Exit and size-growth Role of age
4 ENTRY / EXIT
5 How do we measure entry/exit? In principle easy: new firms appear, while others die and leave the market Empirically not that straightforward: 1 Changes of names 2 Mergers & Acquisitions: external vs. internal ( organic ) growth 3 Changes of principal sector of activity (product diversification) 4 Degree of coverage in the samples at hand: surveys vs. official business registers or specific data collection procedures (e.g., thresholds on size or missing values) Whether we can truly follow firm demography depends on the available data!

7 The evidence References Many papers in the 1990s and 2000s investigating empirical regularities. Here two largely cited works: Dunne et al. (1988) [DRS]: US census data covering , waves of 5 years Bartelsman et al. (2005) [BSS]: OECD cross-country data See also Geroski (1995) and Caves (1998) for reviews
8 DRS: Entry dynamics References Entry rates (# of entry in t / # of incumbents in t) is about 40-50%, stable over time Entrants tend to be small, both in terms of average size and of collective market shares
9 DRS: Exit dynamics References Exit rates similar to entry rates Exiters tend to be small
10 DRS: Exit dynamics References High failure rates: averaging, 61.5% die 5 years after entry and 79.6% after 10 years
11 DRS: Survival References Average size of survivors (relative to all firms) increases as the cohort becomes older Two effects: smaller entrants exit and survivors becomes bigger over time
12 DRS: Survival References Market share of entrants (penetration rate) decreases as the cohort becomes older Despite average size increases, the impact vanishes: survivors grow fast initially, but then slow down
13 DRS: Entry and Exit by industries Within each industry, entry rate exit rate There is cross-industry variation, however.
14 DRS: Industry dynamics References Overall picture from DRS on the role of entry/exit on industry evolution: Entry is mostly due to small firms, and occurs in relatively stable proportions as compared to incumbents Most of entrants dies out relatively soon, while survivors grow fast at the beginning and then their share in the market stabilizes Exiters are replaced by a similarly numerous new cohort of small entrants, and this creates high correlation between entry and exit rates within industries Net entry is much smaller than gross entry Bartelsman et al. (2005): is such US based evidence confirmed in other countries?

(2005): is such US based evidence confirmed in other countries?
17 BSS: Entry/Exit References Turnover rates (Entry+Exit) are around 15-25% in all countries Lower rates than in DRS, but still there is a certain turbulence New fact: turnover rates tend to be higher in services
18 BSS: Entry/Exit by industries Entry and exit positively correlated, altough country-specific variation
19 BSS: Survival References Survival probability (of a cohort): increases with time-from-entry Probability to exit (hazard) increases in the 2 nd year, than flattens: 20-40% entrants fail in the 1 st or 2 nd year 40-50% of entrants survive after the first 7 years
20 BSS: Survival References Similar patterns between US and Europe (here Italy)
21 BSS: Entry/Exit and size (jobs) Employment turnover (creation + destruction of jobs) due to entry/exit is 5-10% Easy explanation : most of entry and exit is accounted for by small firms. Indeed BSS find that size of entrants is about 40-50% the size of the incumbents
22 BSS: Post-entry growth relative to entry size US: remarkable growth, about 65% after 7 years Europe: much lower figures, 5-35% More contestable markets and more innovative entrants in the US?
23 Other evidences on entry (Geroski, 1995) Small entry rates (2-15%) estimated in the UK De novo entry is more frequent, but less successful than entry by diversification Entry rates varies according to the product-industry life cycle: higher in the infancy and initial stages Barriers to entry are high in most industries Entry does not react much to profits

28 Entry/Exit and size-growth dynamics What have we learnt? Small firms grow more, but also more likely to exit: selectivity bias in Gibrat s regressions Also aging must be taken into account: especially young small firms seem to be experiencing fast growth

30 The Role of Age
31 Firm age References Measurement: Typically one would like to have foundation year, but this is rarely available in the datasets Obviously interrelated with the problem of correctly identifying entry/exit Haltiwanger et al. (2013): Age and size-growth dynamics (in terms of employment, job creation and destruction) on US Census data, with precise identification of plants and firm births

(2013): Age and size-growth dynamics (in terms of employment, job creation and destruction) on US Census data, with precise identification of plants and firm births
33 HJM: small vs. large and young vs. mature Nearly all births are small Young firms are mostly small, but there are some small mature firms Most of employment is due to mature firms, within both small and large firms CAVEAT: definition of small firms here is 500+ employees! In EUROSTAT SMEs are <
34 HJM: who creates jobs? References Of course, births only contribute to Job Creation (JC), for about 15% Within small firms: JC is similar across young vs. mature, about 20% each Large mature firms account for about 38% of JC JC is more a matter of age than of size: older firms create more jobs, whatever their size
35 HJM: who destroys jobs? Within small firms: Job Destruction is similar across young vs. mature, about 30% each Large mature firms account for about 35-40% of JD JD stems from a combination of size and age: small destroy more than large, but older firms destroy more whatever their size (downsizing old firms)
36 HJM: size and net (employment) growth DEF: g = L t L t 1/0.5(L t + Lt 1) at establishment level DEF: total g computed by different size classes, as weighted sums of establishment level figures
37 Not controlling for age: inverse relationship Growth rate for size class 1-4: 15.2% Growth rate for size class 5-9: 3.3% Controlling for age: both positive and negative for small firms, flatter for medium-large firms Lots of small firms that destroy job via exit? References HJM: size and net (employment) growth
38 Not controlling for age: inverse relationship Growth rate for size class 1-4: 15.2% Growth rate for size class 5-9: 3.3% Controlling for age: both positive and negative for small firms, flatter for medium-large firms Lots of small firms that destroy job via exit? References HJM: size and net (employment) growth
39 HJM: size and exit References Small firms are more likely to exit, even after controlling for age
40 HJM: age and growth References Weak association between age and growth, even after controlling for size
41 HJM: age and growth, continuing firms BUT, conditional on survival, young grow more than more mature, even controlling for size
42 HJM: age and exit References Young firms die more frequently, even controlling for size Critical role of start-ups: most die, but survivors grow fast (high-growth firms are usually young, beyond small)
43 Implications for us industrial economists 1 High correlation and simultaneity between entry and exit disconfirms textbook perfect-competition profit-driven model, that indeed predicts negative correlation Entry in sectors with above normal profits Exit in sectors with below normal profits Entry/Exit works more as a selection mechanism, rather than as automatic adjustment to equilibrium 2 Continuous process, over time, of competitive selection and reallocation of market shares 3 Most of these involves the fringe of small new firms, while survivors and incumbents tend to be larger

47 Pills of Policy implications: two issues 1 Small is beautiful? Well, in the past there was certain emphasis on flexibility, ability to exploit niches, and ability to create markets and jobs. Nowadays, SMEs are increasingly recognised as weak (lacking managerial ability, resources to invest in innovation and internationalization) And yes, they contribute to net job creation, but we saw that this is more a matter of being young than being small. 2 Consensus about supporting entry and creation of new businesses, but 2 contrasting views: Erga omnes subsidies (large scale public financing): seeds in the field, and then some firms will appear and survive, while other die Selective policies to avoid waste of public money implicit in erga omnes schemes, e.g. targeting specific business plans/new ideas that are valid, but suffer from market failures (in particular, lacking finance, but also organizational and entrepreneurial skills)
