Estimated using exports data.
The economic complexity of a territory can change year to year. Okinawa it is in position 38th considering its ECI in the last year.
The top export opportunities according to the relatedness level, without considering those products were Okinawa already has a comparative advantage, are led by Tropical Fruits (0.11), Other Vegetables (0.1), Crustaceans (0.099), Fruit Juice (0.098), and Wheat Flours (0.098).
The highest complexity exports of Okinawa according to the product complexity index (PCI) are Fork-Lifts (1.71), Other Measuring Instruments (1.44), Gas and Liquid Flow Measuring Instruments (1.4), Ball Bearings (1.22), and Combustion Engines (1.2). 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 Recovered Paper (84.1), Cassava (29.9), Non-fillet Fresh Fish (20.7), Scrap Plastic (20), and Beer (19.3).
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 Okinawa 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.
