This paper redresses this lacuna by using both macro-level data and comparative firm-level evidence. We found that both country trust and firm trust increase firm performance, but that there is a trade-off between the two as high levels of both reduce performance. Finally, both employee rights and investor rights are negatively correlated with country trust.
