Abstract

Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht die Export- und Importbeteiligung niedersächsischer Industrieunternehmen im Zeitraum 1999 bis 2006 und stellt sie der Entwicklung im übrigen Westdeutschland sowie in Ostdeutschland gegenüber. Unter Verwendung des Umsatzsteuerstatistikpanels ist es dabei nicht nur möglich Auskunft über die Verbreitung von Export- und Importaktivitäten zu geben, sondern auch die Dynamik der Export- und Importbeteiligung auf Unternehmensebene zu betrachten. In 2006 betrug der Anteil der Industrieunternehmen die sowohl exportieren als auch importieren in Niedersachsen 16,1 Prozent. Mit Blick auf die Vergleichsregionen ist dieser Anteil geringer als im übrigen Westdeutschland (20,9 Prozent) und nur leicht höher als in Ostdeutschland (13,6 Prozent). Knapp 65 Prozent der niedersächsischen Industrieunternehmen wies 2006 weder Export- noch Importaktivitäten auf. In Ostdeutschland betrug der Anteil gut 67 Prozent und in Westdeutschland (ohne Niedersachsen) gut 58 Prozent. Eine Betrachtung der Muster der Export- und Importbeteiligung über die Jahre 2001 bis 2006 sowie Übergangsmatrizen für das Jahr 2001 auf 2006 zeigen, dass in allen drei betrachteten Regionen der überwiegende Teil der Unternehmen ihren Status (weder Exporteur noch Importeur, nur Exporteur, nur Importeur, sowohl Exporteur als auch Importeur) über die Zeit nicht ändert. Immerhin ein Drittel der in allen betrachteten Jahren im Datensatz enthaltenen Unternehmen haben jedoch mindestens einmal zwischen 2001 und 2006 ihren Status gewechselt.
