Abstract

The constant market share analysis framework is used to decompose changes in Spain’s share of the global market for goods exports into competitiveness and structural effects (i.e. the impact of specialisation, either in product or geographical terms) over 1996-2013. As other high-income countries, Spain has experienced competitive pressures from China and other emerging economies that have resulted in a loss of global market share. Nevertheless, the loss has been smaller than in other European advanced economies, thanks to better competitiveness. By contrast, the structure of geographic markets to which Spain exports, with a large-weight on relatively slow-growing areas and a small weight on fast-growing emerging countries, has exerted a negative impact on Spanish exports. In the same vein, the product structure, focused on relatively slow growing product lines, has not been conducive to better export performance either. This Working Paper relates to the 2014 OECD Economic Survey of Spain (http://www.oecd.org/eco/surveys/economic-survey-spain.htm). Une analyse des parts de marché constantes des exportations de biens espagnols Une analyse en parts de marché constantes est utilisé pour décomposer l'évolution de la part de l'Espagne du marché mondial de exportations de marchandises en deux facteur, la compétitivité et les effets structurels ( l'impact de spécialisation , soit en produit ou termes géographiques ), sur 1996-2013 . Comme d'autres pays à revenu élevé, l'Espagne a connu des pressions concurrentielles en provenance de Chine et d'autres économies émergentes qui ont abouti à une perte de part de marché mondiale. Néanmoins, la perte a été plus faible que dans les autres économies avancées européennes, grâce à une meilleure compétitivité. En revanche, la structure des marchés géographiques auxquels Espagne exporte, avec un grand poids sur les zones à croissance relativement lente et un petit poids sur les pays émergents à croissance rapide, a exercé un impact négatif sur les exportations espagnoles. Dans la même veine, la structure du produit, axée sur des gammes de produits de lente croissance, n'a pas été propice à une meilleure performance à l'exportation. Ce Document de travail se rapporte à l’Étude économique de l’OCDE de l’Espagne, 2014 (http://www.oecd.org/fr/eco/etudes/etude-economique-espagne.htm).
