Imported inputs and export performance: Evidence from Chilean manufacturing industries

Author

  • Zaclicever, Dayna

Abstract

This document examines Chilean manufacturing industries’ backward participation in international production networks, evaluating the relationship between the use of foreign intermediate inputs and export performance (in terms of products and destination countries). The analysis is based on an original dataset that allows addressing within-industry heterogeneity across size classes.
