Institutions and creative destruction in CEECs: determinants of inefficient use of assets

We analyze the relationship between institutional quality and firm efficiency. Using rich data on firms in the European Union between 2005 and 2012, we show that high institutional quality lowers the share of persistently inefficiently used assets. The adverse effect of low institutional quality may...

In addition, we observe similarities between inefficiently used assets in Europe and the phenomenon of zombie lending in Japan during the last decades.
