Abstract

This study provides some evidence against the 'productivity paradox' in Asia-Pacific newly industrialized countries (NIC) and developing countries during the 1992-2001 period. The results show that information and communication technology (ITC) investments positively and significantly affect the GDP and stock market values in each of the analyzed Asia-Pacific NICs and developing countries: Hong Kong, Indonesia, South Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand. ITC-boosted growth increased national productivity, which translated into increased expectations of future profitability at the firm level and positively affected the values of the respective stock markets.
