During the last 20 years Uzbekistan's economy has become relatively less complex, moving from the 62nd to the 85th position in the ECI rank.
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.
Uzbekistan has a high level of specialization in Non-Retail Pure Cotton Yarn (93.8), Molybdenum (65.6), Pitted Fruits (64.2), Cotton Waste (53), and Glycosides (38). Specialization is measured using RCA, an index that takes the ratio between Uzbekistan observed and expected exports in each product.
The highest complexity exports of Uzbekistan according to the product complexity index (PCI) are Molybdenum and articles thereof, waste or scrap (1.16), Electrical apparatus for voltage over 1 kV (0.63), Medical wadding, gauze, dressings etc (0.63), Refractory cements, mortars, concretes except graphite (0.6), and Artificial waxes and prepared waxes (0.57). PCI measures the knowledge intensity of a product by considering the knowledge intensity of its exporters.
The top export opportunities for Uzbekistan according to the relatedness index, are Crude Petroleum (0.18), Chromium Ore (0.17), Other Ores (0.17), Other Oily Seeds (0.16), and Tropical Fruits (0.16). Relatedness measures the distance between a country's current exports and each product. The barchart show only products that Uzbekistan 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.
