Database Specific
Database Specific Abstract AbstractThe Trade in Value Added (TiVA) database is a joint OECD-WTO initiative. Its aim is to allow better tracking of global production networks and supply chains than is possible with conventional trade statistics.
The TiVA database contains a range of indicators measuring the value added content of international trade flows and final demand. The indicators are derived from the 2015 version of OECD's Inter-Country Input-Output (ICIO) Database.
The ICIO has been constructed from various national and international data sources all drawn together and balanced under constraints based on official (SNA93) National Accounts by economic activity and National Accounts main aggregates.
Underlying sources used are notably:
• National supply and use tables (SUTs),
• National and harmonised Input-Output Tables,
• Bilateral trade in goods by industry and end-use category (BTDIxE) and
• Bilateral trade in services
.
Compared to the 2013 version of the OECD-WTO TiVA database, this new version provides more countries and a more detailed industry breakdown. Files showing the full coverage of the TiVA database (i.e. the list of indicators, countries and industries) can be downloaded from the top menu by going to "Export" and "Related Files".
The underlying OECD ICIO tables are freely available for download.
