Abstract
► Limited Mobility Bias explains why positive assortative matching is not observed. ► We show that this bias is substantial in samples with limited inter-firm movement. ► We analyse German social security records. ► We estimate the correlation between worker and firm contributions to wage equations. ► We find that it is unambiguously positive.
