@benediktzoller This is so sad😢. I hope he knew how profound his impact was, how encouraging his spirit and kindness were in particular for youngsters.

Switzerland about to abolish tariffs on all industrial goods by 2022 to foster integration in international production networks, to foster competition and to lower prices for consumers. To ensure the latter, a monitoring entity will be introduced.

[VoxEU @voxeu]

Why don’t all firms use regional trade agreements with lower #tariffs? Firms incur costs to comply with rules of origin. Reducing fixed costs can be more effective & feasible in increasing the use of regional trade agreements than decreasing variable costs https://t.co/XkeM93jouV

@voxeu on my work with Simon Haenni (@econ_uzh): We identify where ancestors of today's Swiss firm founders lived in the 18th century & compare firm entry, exit, and growth of ppl living in the very same place today, but with origins just in different language regions!

The cultural roots of firm entry, exit, and growth https://t.co/5bGgdUrexx

Seems kind of topical ...

Are we underestimating the cost of Trump tariffs?

[Katharina Erhardt @Kathi_Erhardt]

When we try to predict the effects of trade policy changes, we should take into account both the currently applied level of tariffs and the currently applied level of non-tariff barriers! https://t.co/xFJTHspJAq

Unintended trade war consequences: China relies now more on soya-beans imports from Brazil -> experts forecast massive deforestation in Brazil. Why the US–China trade war spells disaster for the Amazon https://t.co/mbY2wHCOZU

Great presentations and discussions on #trade and #innovation at the #HeilbronnWorkshop19. Thanks to @HannaHottenrott and @JensWrona for organizing !

[Felix Poege @f_poege]

Day 2 of #HeilbronnWorkshop19 - Keynote by Otto Toivanen discussing what is known about #inventors. Parental background hugely important. Interestingly, #IQ plays a huge role for becoming one, contrary to lawyers and doctors.

[Katharina Erhardt @Kathi_Erhardt]

Trade war consequences; Red Bull shifted production to Switzerland (in 2005!) to avoid being affected by EU - US trade disputes in the future.

Very interesting. World's leading economists on the question if we should aim at building "national" champions in Europe. https://t.co/oTEvoCsmQT

[John Van Reenen @johnvanreenen]

Regulators shouldn't suspend competition rules to help Europe build national champions https://t.co/eu9X7D2kG0 @chicagoboothrev
