@techreport{oai:agi.repo.nii.ac.jp:00000176, author = {Vu, Manh Tien and ヴ, マン・ティエン and Yamada, Hiroyuki and 山田, 浩之}, month = {Mar}, note = {We examined the effects of Vietnamese enterprise zones on local businesses based on different patterns of place-based policies as well as the ownership structure of the zone infrastructure developers (ZIDs). We constructed a panel of communes during 2000–2007 using a census survey of firms having more than nine employees and a census of zones and zone-based firms. We found that place-based policies led to growth in the number of jobs and firms in the communes where enterprise zones were located, even after excluding zone-based firms. Our findings also suggest that privately owned ZIDs worked best under corporate-tax incentives, while zones with a designated central government agency as the ZID had adverse spillover effects on business development in neighboring communes of the same district.}, title = {Do enterprise zones promote local business development?
