摘要

研究目的:本研究调查了印度尼西亚中小企业参与直接出口活动与企业绩效之间的联系。设计/方法/方法:该研究采用了从对爪哇-巴厘岛地区七个省的271家出口中小企业进行的问卷调查中收集的主要数据。采用OLS和GLM回归技术来估计出口影响模型。研究结果:结果表明,出口活动在产品质量、营销和网络技术、总销售额、总利润、生产技术或技术和工人生产力方面带来的绩效改善最高,在国内销售方面带来的改善最少。中小企业出口绩效改善受到企业规模、所有者教育、外国投资者的存在和中央政府机构援助的积极影响,而受到多年出口的负面影响,并与出口强度呈倒U型关系。理论贡献/原创性:企业国际化理论的话语不仅应关注出口前活动,还应关注出口后活动。此外,关于企业绩效与国际化程度之间关系的论述应考虑非线性关系。东南亚背景下的管理启示:中小企业在出口后阶段应继续积极参与政府的出口援助计划。特别是,出口中小企业应保持和加强与中央政府机构的关系。为了维持和扩大其出口活动,中小企业可以考虑与外国投资者建立伙伴关系。研究局限性和影响:未来的研究可能会调查中小企业在出口后阶段遇到的具体出口刺激和出口壁垒。考虑到社会和经济特征的差异,研究范围可以扩展到东南亚的省份或国家比较,也可以指定为特定的省份/地区或产品组/行业。可以尝试对中小企业进行其他定义,例如基于资产或营业额规模的定义。通过使用事实(定量)数据来代替当前研究中使用的一些感知数据,也可以提高数据的准确性。

Do Export Activities Improve Small Firm Performance? Evidence from Indonesia
Research Aims: This study investigates the link between involvement in direct export activities and firm performance, with reference to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Indonesia. Design/Methodology/Approach: The study employed primary data collected from questionnaires administered to 271 exporting SMEs in seven provinces in Jawa-Bali Region. The OLS and GLM regression techniques were employed to estimate the export impact model. Research Findings: The results show that export activities bring the highest performance improvement in product quality, moderate improvement in marketing and networking techniques, total sales, total profit, production technique or technology and worker productivity, and least improvement in domestic sales. SMEs' exports-induced performance improvement is positively affected by firm size, owners' education, the presence of foreign investors, and assistance from central government agencies, negatively affected by years of exporting, and shows an inverted U-shaped relationship with export intensity. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: The discourse of firm internationalization theories should not only focus on pre-export activities, but also post-export activities. Further, the discourse on the relationship between firm performance and degree of internationalization should consider non-linear relationship. Managerial Implications in the Southeast Asian Context: SMEs should keep actively participating in the government's export assistance programs in their post-export stage. Especially, exporting SMEs should maintain and strengthen their relationships central government agencies. In order to maintain and expand their export activities, SMEs may consider partnership with foreign investors. Research Limitations and Implications: Future research may investigate the specific export stimuli and export barriers that SMEs encounter in post-export stage. The scope of the study can be expanded to provincial or country comparison in Southeast Asia, taking into account differences in social and economic characteristics, or specified to a particular province/region or product group/industry. Other definitions of SMEs-such as those based on asset or turnover size-might be attempted. Data accuracy may also be improved through the use of factual (quantitative) data to replace some perceptual data used in the current study.
