We test whether sunk exporting costs differ among markets. Our results confirm that during 1990–2002, sunk exporting costs were relevant for Spanish firms, and differed depending on the destination market. Besides, the costs to enter/re-enter were higher in developed markets. 2024-07-15T10:26:52Z 2024-07-15T10:26:52Z 2008-07-04 journal article J.V. Blanes-Cristóbal et al.
