Competitividade internacional: uma aplicação do método de constant-market-share para avaliação do desempenho exportador no período 2000-2011.

Abstract

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the export performance of China, United States, Germany, Russia, South Korea, Japan, and Brazil between 2000 and 2011, based on the recent literature on international competitiveness. By applying the Constant-Market-Share model, it was possible to quantify the contribution of the product composition, market distribution and competitiveness on countries’ exports growth. It was found that growing international demand favored the commodity exporters and also countries that have prioritized the most dynamic markets (especially Asia). The results for the competitiveness effect were less accurate because its determinant factors’ impact varies according to the specialization pattern of each economy.
