AGNA Meeting April 2016, Addis Ababa Expanding the coverage of the Trade in Value Added database for Africa

Challenges of global production What is TiVA? What does TiVA tell us? How is TiVA created? Formal OECD/ECA cooperation Overview 2

3 Statistical Challenges of global production What does this mean? Gross exports ≠ value-added Bilateral trade balances can differ significantly – who really trades with who? Imports for exports Of which –75$ profit to US (Apple) –73$ whls/retail US (Apple) –75$ to Japan (Toshiba) –60$ 400 parts from Asia –15$ 16 parts from the US – 2$ assembly by China The Apple iPod = 299$ of Chinese ‘exports’ to US

What is TiVA? An approach to measuring the value that is added by each country in the value-chain 4 TiVA: Trade in Value Added

How is TiVA created? 10 Connecting national SUTs into national Input Output tables into an Inter Country Input Output (ICIO) table

National Supply Use Tables National building blocks for TiVA 11

OECD working with global partners to expand TiVA coverage and provide permanent public-good for policy makers and statisticians Proposal for formal OECD/ECA cooperation: – Phase I – countries are asked to send all current SUTs or IOTs (and structural business statistics) to ECA for onward transmission to OECD – Phase II - OECD to harmonise national data and provide feedback/guidance to countries – Phase III - National Action plans (and leveraging on OECD partnerships, submitted to donors for funding) to develop capacity – Phase IV – integration of national tables into OECD TiVA, and on- going permanent cooperation International cooperation 12

OECD already engaging with countries to create SUTs best adapted to national (data) circumstances, with a view to delivering best quality estimates of coherent GDP. – Capitalising on all available data sources, including in particular micro-data linking. One important dimension of this strategy for Africa is likely to be on the ‘informal’ economy, where the OECD has long- standing expertise. Creating spill-overs and synergies 13
