The Hoberg and Moon text-based offshoring database
is based on annually updated firm disclosures in the regarding their
international activities in 10-Ks.
The offshoring database is best
described as a dynamic firm-nation-year network summarizing the international
activities of publicly traded U.S. firms that file 10-Ks. The network summarizes four specific
activities: (1) Offshore Output (firm sells goods to given nation), (2) Offshore
Input (firm purchases inputs from given nation), (3) Offshore External Input
(firm purchases inputs from given nation but does not own assets there), and
(4) Offshore Internal Input (firm purchases inputs from given nation and the
firm does own assets in the given nation). We thank Christopher Ball at metaHeuristica for access to outstanding text analytic tools that made this project possible.
