This indicator encompasses the
total value of tangible products transferred from residents to non-residents, reflecting the
dynamics of international trade and the economic performance of a country. It includes all movable goods, such as non-monetary gold and net exports from merchanting activities, which highlight both traditional exports and modern trading practices. Presented in current U.S. dollars, this measure provides a snapshot of a nation’s economic engagement with global markets and can reveal shifts in demand, currency valuation impacts, and trade balance conditions. By analyzing these figures, economists and policymakers can assess trade competitiveness and formulate strategies to enhance export growth and overall economic stability.
