These economic complexity rankings use 6 digit exports classified according to the HS96 classification. We consider only countries with population of at least 1 million and exports of at least $1 billion, and products with world trade over $500 million. To explore different rankings and vary these parameters visit the custom rankings section.
Greece has a high level of specialization in Asphalt (72.8), Olive Oil (63.4), Iron Ingots (44.6), Pure Olive Oil (38.9), and Copper Pipes (37). Specialization is measured using RCA, an index that takes the ratio between Greece observed and expected exports in each product.
The top export opportunities for Greece according to the relatedness index, are Tropical Fruits (0.32), Perfume Plants (0.31), Raw Sugar (0.31), Gold (0.3), and Crude Petroleum (0.3). Relatedness measures the distance between a country's current exports and each product. The barchart show only products that Greece is not specialized in.
The product space is a network connecting products that are likely to be co-exported. The product space can be used to predict future exports, since countries are more likely to start exporting products that are related to current exports. Relatedness measures the distance between a product, and all of the products it is currently specialized in.
The Complexity-Relatedness diagram compares the risk and the strategic value of a country's potential export oppotunities.
Relatedness is a predictive of the probability that a country increases its exports in a product. Complexity, is associated with higher levels of income, economic growth, less income inequality, and lower emissions.
