This paper analyses the spatial effects on the production efficiency of P2P accommodation units as an indication of their performance. The empirical analysis undertaken is based on data for the sharing accommodation industry in the Canary Islands (Spain) in the period January 2019–September 2020 (monthly data). In a first stage, order-m robust nonparametric frontier analysis is used to detect superefficient, fully efficient and inefficient listings. The results show that the sharing economy industry was operating at close to full efficiency, and that the annual average score in this respect remained largely constant for some types of accommodation. In the second stage of the analysis, an econometric spatial model approach is applied to identify the spatial drivers of efficiency. The main findings are that negative competition effects prevail over positive agglomeration effects and that spatial professionalization negatively influences listing efficiency. The theoretical and management implications of these findings are discussed.

空间溢出效应对 P2P 住宿单元效率的影响


本文分析了 P2P 住宿单元生产效率的空间效应，作为其性能的指标。进行的实证分析基于 2019 年 1 月至 2020 年 9 月期间加那利群岛（西班牙）共享住宿行业的数据（月度数据）。在第一阶段，使用 order-m 稳健非参数前沿分析来检测超高效、完全有效和低效的列表。结果表明，共享经济行业几乎以最高效率运行，并且某些类型的住宿在这方面的年平均得分基本保持不变。在分析的第二阶段，应用计量经济学空间模型方法来确定效率的空间驱动因素。主要发现是，消极竞争效应优于正向集聚效应，空间专业化对上市效率产生负面影响。讨论了这些发现的理论和管理意义。
