6 Channels of growth spillovers Very important so far have been (of relatively short-lived nature): China s demand for LAC s exports Indirectly, China s role in driving commodity prices up The intensification of trade and other economic linkages matter for sustainable (longer-term) growth to the extent that they translate into: Factor accumulation (physical and human capital) Productivity growth Can LAC leverage this connection further? 6
7 Channels of growth spillovers CanLAC leverage this connection further? For long-term growth, technological diffusion and learning become key determinants of productivity improvements Directly: Technology embodied in physical and human capital Indirectly: Knowledge dissemination through Trade flows: Tech-content of imports Feedback from importing nations Capital flows Migration flows: diffusion of tacit technological knowledge 7
8 Diffusion of technology through the trade channel The Degree of Intra Industry Industry Trade (IIT) For long-term growth, not only about the degree of openness matter, but also the structure/dynamics of trade connections. IIT can be a proxy for technology diffusion and knowledge spillovers: 1 Intra-Industry Trade and Productivity 1. Vertical IIT: trade involves products in the same sector but at different stages of the production process (e.g. imports of intermediate goods) ade Index Intra-Industry Tra y = x (3.14) (0.04) 2. Horizontal IIT: trade of differentiated products might help firms keep up with the technology frontier of their competitors % -2% -1% 0% 1% 2% 3% 4% 5% Average TFP Growth per year EAP LAC Oh Others Notes: Fitted regression lines are added to these figures and the estimated equation is also reported.

10 An exploration of the nature of growth dynamics Compare and contrast exercise of these two connections We focus on one source of long-term growth: The connection to growth poles and the potential for/existence of spillover effects.

14 The overall degree of intra industry industry trade There is little evidence of technology diffusion through trade in the connection to LAC-China, C which seems s to rely extensively e on comparative advantage forces this is a broader pattern characterizing trade dynamics of many LAC countries.

15 Growth poles and technology diffusion The FDI channel playing an even more limited role The Japan-Tigers connection Large FDI flows driven by pull and push factors Flows over time shifted to labor-intensive to capital- and technology-intensive industries FDI flows reinforced trade connections with the development of value chains Growing connections among Tigers The LAC-China connection Very limited flows and mostly concentrated t on resource-intensive r i sectors Recently: small investments appeared in manufacturing and transport Few connections developing among LAC countries that export to China Overall, little l evidence that China is fostering productivity i growth in the LAC region as Japan did for the East Asian Tigers. Some have argued that this is due to an excessive commodity-dependence ( curse ) 15
16 But there are some hopeful signs in LAC Commodity production per se is not inferior to others there is some spotty but trobust evidence of some bright spots in LAC: some commodity sectors are benefiting from technological innovation, generating cross-sectoral linkages, value upgrading, and employment. Biotechnological revolution and connectivity in Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay Climbing the quality ladder in metal production in the region Clusters of activity (employment, SMEs) around copper production and salmon farming in Chile The central point is that it is not necessarily what you produce and trade but how it is being produced and whether it is generating positive spillovers to the rest of the economy. Source: Mandel (2009). 16
17 Overall, trade and financial connections are unlikely to spur growth if not accompanied by: Investments Human capital formation Innovation capacity Appropriate institutional and policy environment % of GDP 35% 25% 15% 5% LAC-7 EAP Investment Decade Average 0% 1960's 1970's 1980's 1990's 2000's Notes: In Panel A, EAP includes Hong Kong, Indonesia, Korea Rep., Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand. In Panel B, EAP includes Hong Kong, Indonesia, Korea Rep., Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand. Both in Panel A and B, LAC-7 includes Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru, and Venezuela. Sources: WDI, Penn World Tables, and The International Energy Agency (IEA). 17
18 Human capital plays an important role in explaining the (low) degree of positive spillovers The existence of skilled labor with high educational and technical capabilities (e.g. welltrained engineers and skilled managers) is key for knowledge spillovers (Schiff and Yang 2010). Borensztein, de Gregorio, and Lee (1998) finds that positive growth effects from FDI requires a minimum threshold of human capital in the host country LAC LAC East Asian Tigers East Asian Tigersg Source: Barro and Lee (2010). 18

20 Domestic policies can also play an important role in fostering spillover effects. East Asian Tigers put in place a wide set of policies to actively seek for foreign technology [World Bank (1993)]: Fostering imports of capital goods Incentives to foreign training Incentives to FDI inflows In addition, East Asian Tigers followed an exchange rate policy geared at fostering export competitiveness: Feasible with relatively closed capital accounts (impossible trinity concerns) 20
21 Domestic policies can also play an important role in fostering spillover effects. The asymmetries in the degree of trade and financial openness give rise to additional constrains for policies i LAC. The region needs to make a larger productivity-enhancing policy effort to compensate for structural impediments (low domestic savings and high degree of financial i globalization) li to a competitive exchange rate. 1 Financial Openness Partial Liberalization EAP LAC Notes: In Panel A, EAP countries are Hong Kong, Indonesia, Korea Rep., Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan, and Thailand. Sources: Kaminsky and Schmukler (2002) and Lane and Milesi-Ferretti (2007). 21
22 Main messages and results Comparing the LAC-China and Tigers-Japan connections lead to a mixed evaluation So far, China has not been a conduit for technological diffusion and knowledge spillovers There is no meaningful intra-industry trade between LAC and China Exports are concentrated in natural resources Imports from China are concentrated on unskilled-labor l intensive i goods 22
23 Main messages and results There are some bright spots in several LAC countries/sectors: mode of production of commodities is escaping the enclave syndrome LAC needs a larger productivity-oriented policy effort to compensate for structural impediments to competitive exchange rate The Tigers followed a different model: high domestic savings and limited integration into non-fdi international markets Could the region turn natural resource abundance and the China Connection into a blessing? Diversification avoiding the enclave syndrome Institutions avoiding corrosive effects of rent-seeking 23
