Abstract

In this paper, we study the links between new-firm startups, gross domestic product (GDP) and unemployment rate in France using a quarterly data basis over the 1993-2011 period. Interactions are analyzed, in the short and long run, in two main dimensions: the regional and the national dimensions. Fluctuations in GDP are an early indicator of the new-firm startups at the national level but this effect disappears at the regional level. Unemployment rates and new-firm startups are closely linked in the short-run as well as in the long-run and show evidence of the presence of the REFUGEE?s effect and the SCHUMPETER?s effect. In most of the regions, the REFUGEE?s effect seems to be dominant: the increase of the unemployment rate leads to an increase in the entrepreneurial activity. Thus, in France new-firm startups are mainly driven by necessity motives.
