dc.description.abstract | The EU’s economic relations with China are characterised by a significant trade deficit. Enhancing EU exports of high-tech products, in particular, to China is the best way out of this imbalance. In doing so, EU countries can take advantage of the opportunities provided by the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) that intends to improve connectivity between Europe and Asia.Objective: This study aims to identify the untapped potential for high-tech exports of selected EU countries in trade with China and to evaluate the opportunities arising from the BRI in utilising this potential.Research Design & Methods: To assess the overall high-tech export potential of selected EU countries to China, the export gap was calculated using the concept of revealed comparative advantages.Findings: Among the examined EU countries, Hungary and the Czech Republic were found to have the greatest high-tech export growth potential to China. The largest export gaps were recorded in electrical machinery and equipment.Implications & Recommendations: The findings of the study can be used by European businesses to adjust their export strategies. It can also be used by government institutions of the studied countries when designing their economic and trade policies, particularly vis-à-vis China and the BRI initiative, within the field of supporting infrastructure projects, as well as high-tech industries.Contribution & Value Added: The study contributes to the literature on the potential of EU export growth to China that has not been sufficiently explored yet. The novelty of the study is in identifying specific high-tech commodities with the highest potential for export to China. | en |
dc.description.abstract | Stosunki gospodarcze UE z Chinami charakteryzują się znacznym deficytem handlowym. Zwiększenie unijnego eksportu produktów zaawansowanych technologicznie, w szczególności do Chin, jest najlepszym sposobem wyjścia z tej nierównowagi. W ten sposób kraje UE mogą skorzystać z możliwości oferowanych przez Inicjatywę Pasa i Szlaku (BRI), która ma na celu poprawę łączności między Europą a Azją.Cel: Niniejsze opracowanie ma na celu identyfikację niewykorzystanego potencjału eksportowego produktów zaawansowanych technologicznie wybranych krajów UE w handlu z Chinami oraz ocenę możliwości wynikających z BRI w zakresie wykorzystania tego potencjału.Metody badawcze: Aby ocenić ogólny potencjał w zakresie eksportu produktów zaawansowanych technologii wybranych krajów UE do Chin, dokonano kalkulacji luki eksportowej przy użyciu koncepcji ujawnionych przewag komparatywnych.Ustalenia: Spośród badanych krajów UE największy potencjał wzrostu eksportu produktów zaawansowanych technologicznie do Chin mają Węgry i Czechy. Największe luki eksportowe odnotowano w przypadku maszyn i urządzeń elektrycznych.Implikacje i zalecenia: Wyniki badań mogą być wykorzystane przez europejskie przedsiębiorstwa do dostosowania swoich strategii eksportowych. Mogą być również wykorzystywane przez instytucje rządowe badanych państw przy projektowaniu ich polityki gospodarczej i handlowej, szczególnie wobec Chin i inicjatywy BRI, w zakresie wspierania projektów infrastrukturalnych, a także branż high-tech.Wkład i wartość dodana: Opracowanie wnosi wkład do literatury na temat potencjału wzrostu eksportu UE do Chin, który nie został jeszcze wystarczająco zbadany. Nowością przeprowadzonych badań jest identyfikacja konkretnych produktów zaawansowanych technologicznie o najwyższym potencjale eksportowym do Chin. | pl |
