Estimated using exports data.
The economic complexity of a territory can change year to year. Niigata it is in position 21st considering its ECI in the last year.
The top export opportunities according to the relatedness level, without considering those products were Niigata already has a comparative advantage, are led by Halides (0.17), Tensile Testing Machines (0.17), Chemical Analysis Instruments (0.16), Petroleum Resins (0.16), and Machinery Having Individual Functions (0.16).
The highest complexity exports of Niigata according to the product complexity index (PCI) are Metalworking Transfer Machines (2.43), Photographic Chemicals (2.17), Metal Pickling Preparations (1.71), Wrenches (1.68), and Metal Finishing Machines (1.67). PCI measures the knowledge intensity of a product by considering the knowledge intensity of its exporters.
The most specialized products according to the RCA index are led by Hypochlorites (332), Cellulose (329), Other Vinyl Polymers (113), Metal Pickling Preparations (111), and Limestone (70.7).
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 Niigata 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.
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.
