In 2019 the top export destinations of Barcelona were France (β¬8.58B), Germany (β¬5.82B), Italy (β¬4.78B), Portugal (β¬3.74B), and United Kingdom (β¬3.45B).
In 2019 the top import origins of Barcelona were Germany (β¬13.5B), China (β¬8.22B), France (β¬6.23B), Italy (β¬5.81B), and Netherlands (β¬3.11B).
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 Barcelona is 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.
This network shows the products most related to the production structure of Barcelona. These are products that tend to be co-exported with the products that Barcelona exports. Higher relatedness values ββindicate greater knowledge, which predicts a greater probability of exporting that product in the future.
The Complexity-Relatedness diagram compares the risk and the strategic value of a territory'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.
