  10. Services account for the largest and increasing share of GDP

  11. FDI has been mainly market-seeking and concentrated in services NB: Data include Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and the FYR Macedonia

  12. Travel accounts for the largest share of service exports Includes business and personal travel Legal, accounting, consulting, architectural, etc. services Road, railway, sea and air passenger and freight transport Source: UN Service Trade Database

  16. Depending on the industry, supply chains tend to be more or less regional Intra and extra-CEFTA exports (%) of intermediate goods in 2009 by disaggregated industries Source: OECD (2012). CEFTA also includes Moldova. No data available for Kosovo*

  17. Depending on the industry, supply chains tend to be more or less regional Intra and extra-CEFTA exports (%) of intermediate goods in 2009 by disaggregated industries Glass and glass products, clay, ceramics, bricks, cement, lime and plaster, cutting and shaping Office machinery and computers Electric valves and tubes, television and radio transmitters, television and radio receivers, sound or video recording apparatus Source: OECD (2012). CEFTA also includes Moldova. No data available for Kosovo*

The RCA matrix helps identify economies’ positions in supply chains RCA in final good exports Other / No evidence of supply chains Final stage supply chains No propensity to import intermediate goods Propensity to import intermediate goods imports First stage supply chains Intermediate stage supply chains RCA in intermediate good exports Source: OECD (2012)
