The aim of this paper is to build the so-called RAWS/RAW method to estimate an annual series of Input-Output Tables (IOTs) in 2000 reference of Brazilian national accounts. The RAWS/RAW differs from other procedures applied to Brazil in that it is based on algorithms that optimize the use of...

This working paper introduces the concept of Trade in Value Added (TiVA) and presents an initial analysis of TiVA for selected regional ESCAP economies. The paper introduces Global Value Chains (GVCs) and issues for the measurement of trade statistics due to proliferation of GVCs. It further...

This paper provides a comprehensive discussion on different, interconnected methods of using the system of national accounts to measure the relevance of a country's wellness sector to its overall economy. Procedures are discussed for using input-output analysis to derive the production and...

The unprecedented lockdown measures implemented by many countries in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic have created a need for tools to assess their economic costs. For this purpose, we present a novel dynamic input-output modelling framework which we apply to an estimation of the economic...

We extend the regional input-output model for the economic impact assessment of Covid-19 lockdowns in Italy proposed in Reissl et al. (2021) by incorporating the effects of changes in mobility on the level and composition of consumption demand. We estimate the model on sectoral data for 2020 and...

This article employs two alternative approaches based on input-output tables to re-evaluate key Australian industries and their interconnections. The first approach utilizes traditional linkages, while the second approach employs machine learning methods. Data come from the OECD database for...

Input-output analysis has been widely used in different scenarios, because it is easy to implement and interpret. Nevertheless, it is important to note that the build of input-output coefficients should be done with caution, especially in case exists secondary production in sectors, since this...
