Abstract | ||||
This study aims at examining the efficiency of the participation of the public and private agents in the production process in different productive sectors of the Egyptian economy during the period 2003-2018. The study utilized the Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA), also known as the Composed Error model, to determine the efficiency of a production function that consists of labor and capital, as inputs, and the generated value-added by the two productive economic agents, as outputs. The study found differentiated results across the productive sectors regarding the relative weights of the public and private agents and the efficiency of their technical performance, on the one hand, and the returns and contributions of labor and capital factors by the two economic agents in the productive sectors, on the other hand. In general, the study found that the relative weights of the public and private agents in different productive sectors in Egypt are, to a large extent, commensurate with their level of technical efficiency. | ||||
