Note(s): ESTEqBiCom: Bilateral Trade Equation Estimators. The natural logarithm is represented by “ln” before the independent variables. IntegrationSW is the integration measure proposed by Squalli and Wilson (2011). Standard errors are in parentheses. Significance levels are as follows: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001
