Abstract

(english) The article seeks to clarify the relationship between financial development with the proportion of exporting firms and the volume of exports. A theoretical model is developed with two countries at different levels of financial restriction and cost, several sectors differentiated by their dependence on external finance and heterogeneous firms that produce using a combination of factors of production. The model shows that the country with the lower level of credit market restrictions experience a commercial advantage in high external dependence sectors. The country with a more competitive cost structure experiences an advantage and specializes in sectors with low dependence on external finance. The model also shows that financial development only impacts trade of financial constrained sectors. _________________________________ (français) L’article analyse la relation entre le développement financier avec la proportion de firmes exportatrices et le volume des exportations. Un modèle théorique est développé avec 2 pays à différents niveaux de restriction financière et coûts, plusieurs secteurs différenciés par leur dépendance du financement externe et des firmes hétérogènes qui produisent avec une combinaison de facteurs de production. Le modèle montre que le pays à faible restriction dans les marchés de crédit connaît un avantage commercial dans les secteurs à forte dépendance externe. Le pays dont la structure de coût est relativement moins chère connaît un avantage et se spécialise dans les secteurs à faible niveau de dépendance externe. Le modèle montre également que le développement financier impacte uniquement le commerce des secteurs contraints par l’endettement.
