Introduction Trade in final goods is increasingly being replaced by trade in intermediate inputs as a result of the international fragmentation of production processes over the last two decades.
This trend complicates traditional customs-based trade statistics, which record the full value of trade flows on a gross rather than net value-added basis to measure a country’s competitiveness and the importance of trade to economic growth. More specifically, U.S. export statistics measuring gross exports of goods and services overstate the domestic value-added content of exports because foreign inputs are not subtracted from the total. U.S. import statistics overstate import value because some products contain U.S. value-added in the form of supplies, components, and services used during manufacturing. Traditional bilateral statistics do not reveal the full scale of the interdependence of economies in global value chains. The OECD and WTO have been collaborating on this issue since 2009.

The Global Value Chains Initiative provides an industry-centric view of economic globalization that highlights the linkages between firms and other economic actors from the global to the local levels of analysis. The Initiative seeks to disseminate recent developments and applications of this research agenda and to foster the development of an international community of global value chain researchers using the tools provided by the Internet.
Middle East & North Africa (MENA) CGGC uses the GVC framework to address economic development challenges in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The region has one of the fastest growing populations in the world along with the highest youth unemployment rates. MENA’s economies include high-income countries that depend on oil exports such as Saudi Arabia, middle-income countries with diversified exports such as Egypt, and low-income countries such as Yemen.
