We study how terminated correspondent banking relationships affect international trade. Drawing on firm-level export data from emerging Europe, we show that when local banks lose access to correspondent services, their corporate clients experience significant export declines. This trade contraction occurs on both the extensive margin, with fewer firms exporting, and the intensive margin, with existing exporters shipping lower values. Firms only partially offset lost exports with higher domestic sales, resulting in lower total revenues and employment. Other firms cease operations entirely. These firmlevel impacts aggregate to lower industry-level exports in countries more exposed to correspondent bank retrenchment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
