Horizontal and vertical connector countries in a geoeconomically fragmenting world

Aiyar, Shekhar; Ohnsorge, Franziska; Yilmazkuday, Hakan - 2026

Geoeconomic fragmentation - the phenomenon of international transactions being increasingly restricted to politically aligned partners - creates risks for individual countries but also opportunities that some hope to seize by becoming "connector" countries. We modify a standard trade model by...

Integration into Global Value Chains : evidence from Mexico, 1995-2020

Rivera-Basques, Luisa; Higuera-Cota, María Fernanda - 2026

This paper examines Mexico's integration into Global Value Chains (GVCs) and its implications for structural change over the period 1995-2020. Using a multiregional input-output framework, the analysis decomposes gross exports into domestic and foreign value added and combines these indicators...

Global production networks and imperfect competition

Huang, Hanwei; Manova, Kalina; Perelló, Oscar; Pisch, Frank - 2026

How do global production networks and market structure interact to shape the welfare effects of trade and competition policy? We develop a model with two-sided firm heterogeneity, matching frictions, and imperfect supplier competition. More productive buyers match with more suppliers, inducing...

Slice to protect

Eppinger, Peter S.; Kukharskyy, Bohdan; Naghavi, Alireza; … - 2026

We examine how firms strategically slice up global production processes to protect proprietary know-how. By sourcing fewer inputs from each supplier, firms avoid the concentration of information in the hands of individual suppliers and thereby reduce the risk of imitation. Using rich micro data...

Growing together and apart : scale economies and labor specialization in global value chains

Arnarson, Björn Thor; Buus, Magnus Tolum; Moxnes, Andreas - 2026

We study how firm growth reorganizes the division of labor across firms in global value chains. Using a novel dataset linking cross-border firm-to-firm transactions to matched employer-employee data, we show that demand shocks increase trade between firms while reducing occupational similarity,...

Servicification in global value chains and services trade restrictions in Asian economies

Taguchi, Hiroyuki; Lar, Ni - 2026

Global value chains have recently changed structurally ("servicification")-that is, service sectors' involvement in global value chain processes has become more intensive. We quantify services trade restrictions' contribution to underdevelopment of global value chain servicification across Asian...

Global value chain upgrading through international standardization : evidence from China’s ICT sector

Yan, Zhe; Hu, Jing - 2026

In the context of accelerating global integration, the concept of global value chains (GVCs) has emerged as a new model of international production and the division of labor. The development of GVCs relies on highly standardized international trade, in which technical standards play a central...

Trade intensity and global value chain participation : evidence from developing economies

This paper investigates the role of cross-border trade in shaping participation in global value chains (GVCs) in developing and emerging economies over the period 2000-2022. It tests the central hypothesis that greater trade intensity enhances integration into fragmented global production...

Global value chains embedding and energy inequality in international trade

Chen, Suisui; Xuemei, Li - 2026

As global value chains (GVCs) continue to deepen, energy resources embedded in international trade are increasingly redistributed across countries through cross-border production networks, potentially reshaping patterns of energy utilization and exacerbating inequality in trade related energy...

A network-leontief model of international trade in agricultural global value chains

Trends in Global Value Chains

2026

Global value chains (GVCs) remain highly globalised in the post-COVID-19 era but are being reconfigured in more complex ways. New OECD evidence shows that, in real terms, the use of imported goods and services in world production is near its historical peak in 2024. Recent changes are driven...
