摘要：

We study the impact of individual risk attitude on the relationship between product innovation and firm performance, in a model of firm growth with endogenous product selection. We exploit a unique dataset collecting firm-level data on new product introductions and individual attitudes towards risk elicited from a lottery. Empirical evidence shows that the introduction of a new product affects firm growth significantly only in the sample of risk-loving individuals, thus supporting the hypothesis of a negative correlation between the firm growth and the risk aversion of the decision maker.
