Comparative Advantage
in the Netherlands:
A Global Value Chain Perspective
Marcel Timmer
Groningen Growth and Development Centre,
University of Groningen
Ministerie van Financiën, 22 Januari 2014
“Van iedere euro die we in Nederland verdienen,
komt zeventig cent uit het buitenland.”
aldus A. Pechtold in “Henk, Ingrid en Alexander”
„want de totale waarde van onze export even groot
is als 70 procent van ons bbp”,
(bron: www.nrcnext.nl/blog/2012/02/28)
Van Micro naar Macro
Dit klopt als we alleen maar met NL inputs produceren.
MICRO case studies van producten laten echter internationale
fragmentering van productie zien en organisatie in global value
chains (GVC) (e.g. iPad; Duitse Porsche etc.)
Wat is het MACRO perspectief?
World Input Output Database (WIOD) project geeft voor het
eerst hier een antwoord. Europees project (2009-2012) geleid
door RUG.
Increasing fragmentation of production:
A typical car consists of parts and components
sourced worldwide

Wat is een Global Value Chain (GVC) vanuit macro-perspectief?
Hoe kunnen we de waarde die landen toevoegen aan GVCs
empirisch waarnemen?

The Traditional View
Increasing exports/GDP indicates competitive strength
Traditional comparative advantage analysis finds that:
NL RCA pattern is persistent over time: agriculture and
food; chemicals; flowers (e.g. De Groot, 2007).
Similar persistence for Europe as a whole (Di Mauro, 2010)
NL has advantage in low-skilled products, while China has
advantage in high-skilled products ? Really?
“It is not about what you sell,
but what you do”

Beleids implicaties van een GVC
perspectief (1)
GVC denken:
Interdependentie
Sectoren (landbouw, manufacturing en diensten)
Bedrijven (bijv. indirecte exporten van MKB)
NL concurrentie kracht hangt af van
buitenlandse leveranciers
Wat is de markt? E.g. indirecte exporten naar China
Landen:
Noodzaak voor nieuwe maatstaven, e.g. bijdrage export
aan economie wordt overschat
A new competitiveness
measures
GVC income of a country is the value added by the
country in a particular product GVC by performing activities
in its production.
In work so far we focus on final manufacturing goods as
they are most fragmented.
In total 41 landen x 14 manufacturing product groups =
574 product GVCs

Concluding remarks
Internationale fragmentering van productie impliceert
concurreren op activiteiten, niet op sectoren.
Nieuwe maatstaven gebaseerd op toegevoegde waarde
van activiteiten: GVC income.
Bevindingen
NL en EU als geheel hielden stand tot 2008, maar geen
herstel na de shock
Functionele specialisatie binnen de EU
Voor NL: voortgaande specialisatie in post-productie
activiteiten (met hoog skill gehalte) en capital
Beleids implicaties (2)
Sturen op activiteiten (R&D, design, logistics, finance, branding,
market exploration) ipv sectoren? Human capital agenda?
Clustering versus fragmentering van activiteiten (zie Baldwin,
OECD (2012), “Interconnected Economies”)
Managen effecten handel op inkomensverdeling (hooggeschoolde arbeid en kapitaal ‘winnen’ meer)
Verbeterde statistieken
voortbouwend op bijv. Kuypers, Lejour, Lemmers, Ramaekers
(CBS/CPB, 2012): “Kenmerken van Wederuit-voerbedrijven”
Statistieken over business functions (EU initiatief)

METHOD
> Decomposition method based on mathematical input-output technique
involving the “Leontief-inverse”
The value added contributions (v) of factors in industry i in country j are
given by
v=P(I-A)-1f
P diagonal matrix of value-added as ratio of gross-output (ij x ij),
A matrix of intermediate input use (foreign and domestic) (ij x ij),
I the identity matrix; and (I-A)-1 the so-called Leontief inverse (ij x ij)
f output of final manufactures (for consumption and investment
demand) (ij x 1)
NB Use of Leontief inverse insures that all stages of production
are taken into account
