Abstract

Using 1984-1989 firm level data from Vilnius, Lithuania, the industrial structure of a former Soviet city is examined for the first time. A combination of two panel data stochastic frontier methods is used to derive indices of relative technical inefficiency of firms within several branches in Vilnius.

Keywords: City structure, vilnius, technical efficiency
