摘要
This article examines the relationship between pro-poor growth and the size distribution of manufacturing enterprises in Vietnam. Analysis focuses on the consequences for both efficiency and equity of the predominance of very large firms in the size distribution, i.e. the "rightward skew". The evidence suggests that the rightward skew may have adverse consequences for efficiency, but less so for equity.
