論題 Tariff Pass-through of World-wide Trade: Empirical Evidence at the Tariff-line Level
概要 This paper provides the first empirical evidence on the tariff pass-through of the world-wide trade. Specifically, we estimate the effects of tariff reduction on import prices for our tariff line-level data in 46 import countries in 2007-2011. The estimation results show that the average pass-through rate for tariff reduction by regional trade agreements (RTAs) is higher than that for reduction of most favoured nation rates. Namely, most part of tariff rents goes to importers in the case of multilateral trade liberalization and to exporters in the case of trade liberalization by RTAs. We also find that the product differentiation has an impact of substantial magnitude on the tariff pass-through in RTAs. The difference in income level of country pairs affects much the tariff pass-through in RTAs. The bargaining on prices between importer and exporter might explain these results because the use of RTAs requires exporters to incur some costs for certifying products' origin.

論題 Heckscher-Ohlin: Evidence from Virtual Trade in Value Added
概要 The fragmentation of production chains across borders is one of the most distinctive features of the last 30 years of globalization. Nonetheless, our understanding of its implications for trade theory and policy is only in its infancy. We suggest that trade in value added should follow theories of comparative advantage more closely than gross trade, as value-added flows capture where factors of production, e.g. labor and capital, are used along the global value chain. We find empirical evidence that Heckscher-Ohlin theory does predict manufacturing trade in value-added, and it does so better than for gross shipment flows. While countries export across a broad range of sectors, they specialize in techniques using their abundant factor intensively.
