About the indicator

The share of high-technology products — aerospace equipment, computers, pharmaceuticals, scientific instruments, electronics — in the exports of manufactured goods. The indicator shows how far a country is plugged into the technological links of supply chains, but not the depth of local content: assembly from imported components also counts as high-technology exports.

Important: There are no aggregates for country groups: the share is calculated against manufactured exports, and neither the World Bank nor UNCTAD publishes such a series. Merchandise exports will not do as a weight — in commodity countries they are enormous while manufactured exports are negligible. For comparing magnitudes there is the absolute series of high-technology exports.
