Trade patterns and global value chains in East Asia : From Trade in Goods to Trade in Tasks andreas.maurer@wto.org
9
Global production chains – Ins and outs International consumer demand Export processing zones Development of infrastructure and technological progress Lower applied tariffs and trade policy incentives Outsourcing and offshoring strategies and FDI Emergence of Trade in tasks: Need for new statistical measures of international trade Global production chains and world trade Dominance of trade in intermediate goods Development of intra- firm trade Increase of processing trade
10
Asian economies have relatively low applied tariffs on imports (especially on semi-processed goods) Source: WTO
11
Export processing zones account for about 20% of total merchandise exports of developing economies Sources: ILO & WTO (2006 or most recent year) : economies with EPZs
12
Asia is the most attractive FDI destination in the developing regions Source: UNCTAD (Billions of US$)
13
… Confirming that: Asia is the World manufacturer Asian supply chains boost the regional markets Asian economies present a high degree of industrial specialization Key facts on Asia trade in intermediate goods … Asias share in world exports of intermediate goods increases : 35% in 2009 Intra-Asian trade is predominant Asia imports more intermediate goods than it exports Intermediate goods traded by Asian economies are more and more sophisticated More and more concentrated trade on few components Intermediate goods dominate world non-fuel merchandise exports Source: UNSD & WTO 2009 value Billions of US$
14
Towards a new measure of international trade Traditional statistics present some biases: – Multi-counting of trade flows in intermediate goods – Difficult attribution of the country of origin of an imported product Measuring trade in value added terms allows: – To circumvent the biases observed with traditional statistics – To take into account the specificity of trade occurring between the different actors of a production chain

Summary of the benefits of trade in value added analysis A better evaluation of the actual contribution of international trade to an economy (incl. development, employment, environment) To highlight the interdependency of economies, and the counter-productive effects of protectionist measures on economies and enterprises they are supposed to protect Better evaluation of the contribution of the services sector on trade Conventional trade statistics need complement for analysing value added – data gaps and how can they be closed (TEC, WIOD, OECD/WTO)
