The Trade in Value Added (TiVA) database consists of a set of measures that aim to provide better insights into global production networks and supply chains than is possible with conventional trade statistics (see TiVA web page ).

The Origin of value added in final demand presented here, is derived from the latest version of OECD’s Inter-Country Input-Output (ICIO) database (see ICIO web page) and provides estimates of final demand in country c for industry i final goods and services, broken down by the value added originating from source industry j in source country s.

In other words, it reveals how the value of final demand goods and services consumed within a country is an accumulation of value generated by many industries in many countries.

For a description of the method used for calculating these estimates using the ICIO, please refer to the TiVA indicators guide.

Domestic value added origin is shown where source country s = c and, for convenience, also represented by source country = “DXD: Domestic”.

From this data cube, a range of final demand-based measures can be derived including those in TiVA principal indicators cube such as:

• Domestic value added embodied in foreign final demand, FFD_DVA and related partner shares FFD_DVApSH.

• Foreign value added embodied in domestic final demand, DFD_FVA and related partner shares DFD_FVApSH.
