Tracing value added in gross exports of the automotive industry : the case of France and Germany

Résumé

Due to the increasing fragmentation of international production chains, traditional export statistics lose their reliability to depict value streams between countries. To illustrate this problem and a possible solution for an exemplary case, gross exports of the French and German automotive industry are decomposed using data from the World Input-Output Database for the period from 1995 to 2011. Decomposition results seem to reflect consequences of vertical specialization: in both country sectors foreign value added in gross exports as well as double counted shares are increasing while the domestic value added is declining. However, the growing domestic value contribution in absolute terms suggests that both the French and German automotive sector succeeded in remaining competitive on international markets.
