Exporter-level information on export transactions derived from customs records. The dataset provides indicators at the country-year level, compiled by the World Bank's Exporter Dynamics Database. The specific temporal coverage and volume of records are not detailed.
Use Cases
- Analyze trends in exporter survival rates using the 'Number of Exiters' indicator across countries and years.
- Model the relationship between macroeconomic conditions and firm exit from exporting using country-year panel data.
- Benchmark national export sector resilience by comparing exit rates across different geographies and time periods.
Strengths
- Data is sourced from official customs records, providing a standardized foundation for analysis.
- Indicators are structured at the country-year level, enabling longitudinal and cross-country comparison.
Limitations
- The dataset's row count, time range, and specific column details beyond the core indicator are unknown.
- The absence of firm-level identifiers restricts analysis to aggregate patterns rather than micro-level dynamics.
