Abstract: This study examines the causality effects between quality control assurance certification and corporate performance. The study uses the matching method that Donald B. Rubin first introduced in 1974. By matching the 2006 COI survey and the DIANE database, the available data show that: while quality control assurance certification has given a major boost to French companies’ financial capital productivity, it has no effect on their added value, turnover and the labor productivity.
