Abstract

The paper analyses differences in company productivity within and be - tween different industrial sectors in Denmark. Within industries, the dispersion in company productivity is significantly higher in industries where there is low competition due to there being few competitors or high barriers to entry. The differences in company productivity between industrial sectors can also be partly explained by the competitive environment, as industries with low levels of competition have significantly lower productivity. The analysis further shows that the differences in the competitive advantages among the companies are highly stable over time, as the major part of an advantage in a given firm’s productivity relative to other firms still remains in existence after five years.
