The Economic Complexity Index, or ECI, is a measure of an economy’s capacity which can be inferred from data connecting locations to the activities that are present in them. For more info about Economic Complexity, visit the Economic Complexity page.
Estimated using exports data.
The top export opportunities according to the relatedness level, without considering those products were Texas already has a comparative advantage, are led by Photographic Chemicals (0.18), Artificial Filament Tow (0.18), Developed Exposed Photographic Material (0.18), Halides (0.18), and Photo Lab Equipment (0.17).
The highest complexity exports of Texas according to the product complexity index (PCI) are Nitrile Compounds (1.08), Halogenated Hydrocarbons (0.94), Pig and Poultry Fat (0.73), Antiknock (0.63), and Acyclic Hydrocarbons (0.48). 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 Sorghum (41.1), Pig and Poultry Fat (23.7), Nitrile Compounds (9.9), Ethers (9.8), and Acyclic Hydrocarbons (8.2).
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 Texas 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. Bubble size corresponds to exports value by year 2020.
