| Description | Automotive industry is considered to be one of the most important export articles for the Czech Republic. In the same time, nowadays we can observe increased vertical specialisation in international trade. By using Grubel-Lloyd index and gravity model we study what impact does the growth in intra-industry trade in road vehicles have on the Czech exports in this group. The results of our analysis suggest that the increase in intra-industry trade leads to an increase in overall Czech road vehicle exports. |
