Wydatki przedsiębiorstw na usługi finansowe jako źródło wzrostu gospodarczego w krajach Unii Europejskiej

Abstracts

PL

Celem pracy jest zbadanie i porównanie znaczenia wydatków przedsiębiorstw na usługi finansowe dla wzrostu produkcji w krajach Unii Europejskiej. W badaniu wykorzystano metodę dekompozycji wzrostu produkcji według Jorgensona et al. (1987), która zakłada, iż zmiany produkcji wynikają ze zmian wielkości wydatków przedsiębiorstw na zakup surowców, materiałów, usług i czynników produkcji (pracy i kapitału) oraz łącznej produktywności czynników produkcji. Zaletą tej metody jest możliwość obliczenia wkładów wydatków na zakup materiałów lub usług (ogółem lub dla poszczególnych kategorii) we wzrosty produkcji w całej gospodarce oraz w poszczególnych działach. Badanie przeprowadzono w odniesieniu do usług finansowych, jednakże znaczenie usług finansowych dla wzrostu gospodarczego porównano ze znaczeniem usług biznesowych opartych na wiedzy, które postrzegane są jako mające wpływ na wzrost produkcji i produktywności. Dane wykorzystane w badaniu pochodzą z WIOD (World Input-Output Database). Okres badawczy to lata 1995–2009, z uwagi na dostępność danych.

The aim of this paper is to study and compare the importance of intermediate demand for financial services for the growth of production in the European Union countries. In the study the methodology introduced by Jorgenson et al. (1987) is used. This assumes that changes in the production (in real terms) result from changes in intermediate inputs of raw and manufacturing materials and services, as well as in factor inputs (labour and capital) and in total factor productivity. The advantage of this method is the ability to calculate the contributions of different components of intermediate inputs (including service inputs – total or with respect to particular service categories) to production growth in the whole economy and in individual industries. The study is carried out with respect to financial services, but their contribution to economic growth is compared with the contribution of knowledge-intensive business services that have been already recognized as affecting economic and productivity growth. The data used in the study come from the World Input-Output Database. The analysed period covers the years 1995–2009, owing to the availability of relevant data.
