MURILLO-VILLANUEVA, Brenda. Value-added and global export chains between Mexico, the United States, and Canada. Prob. Des [online]. 2022, vol.53, n.210, pp.39-63.  Epub Dec 05, 2022. ISSN 0301-7036.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2022.210.69822.

This article sets out to disaggregate by origin and destination the value-added contained in the bilateral exports of the member countries of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) in the years 2005, 2010 and 2015. The objective is to identify the proportion of domestic value-added (DVA) that each country exports and the type of participation of each one in the region's value chains. A value-added input-output model was employed using interregional matrices from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) for the years under analysis. The findings suggest that Mexican exports have the highest foreign value-added (FVA), meaning that Mexico and Canada have been superficially inserted into the region's value chains, while the US maintains complex chains with its trading partners.

Keywords : bilateral exports; global value chains (GVC); input-output; UMSCA region.
