Argentinean export growth was impressive
during the recent economic boom (2003-2007). However,
decomposing export growth reveals that the extensive margin
(increases in exports of existing products to existing
markets) dominates, while the intensive margin (increases in
exports of new products or new markets) contributes little
to export growth. Argentina's trade product
concentration has increased in the past 10 years, and the
main export products remain overwhelmingly natural-resource
intensive. The little diversification of non-primary exports
limits the country s ability to weather a decline in export
commodity prices. The country has had some success finding
new export markets, especially in Latin America, but should
seek to develop deeper trade relationships with high GDP
export destinations such as the European Union and the
United States. Another challenge going forward is the
relatively low sophistication of exports and limited
integration into the global production chains, falling
behind regional competitors such as Brazil. This calls for
policy measures to improve the ability of existing firms to
innovate and compete successfully in global markets. |
