IMF Working Papers on Developing Countries - Dictionary of Arguments
Ostry I 19 Developing countries/tariffs/Furceri/Hannan/Ostry/Rose: (…) for advanced economies, the decline in output after tariff increases is larger than in the baseline. >Tariff increase. Similarly, the effect on productivity is higher than in the baseline for advanced economies, but lower for other economies. One of the reasons for the different effects in advanced and emerging/developing economies could be due to the differential impact of trade liberalization. Leibovici and Crews (2018)(1) provide suggestive evidence that the potential gains from trade liberalization differ based on a country’s income level. Factors like financial development, limited infrastructure, and limited human capital prevent EMDEs ((s) Emerging Market and Developing Economies) from increasing production to sell internationally following trade liberalization. Consequently, EMDEs are disproportionally less affected during trade protectionism episodes, since they reap less benefits from trade liberalization to begin with. >Developing countries, >Tariffs, >Tariff impacts. 1.
