The authors are grateful for funding from World Bank Trust Funds provided by the governments of Ireland, Japan, the Netherlands (BNPP) and the United Kingdom (DfID). This Working Paper series is designed to promptly disseminate the findings of work in progress for comment before they are finalized. The views expressed are the authors alone and not necessarily those of the World Bank and its Executive Directors, nor the they represent, nor of the institutions providing funds for this research project.

2 ECONOMIC AND TRADE INDICATORS FOR LATIN AMERICA, 1960 TO 2004 Damiano Sandri, Ernesto Valenzuela and Kym Anderson This compilation of data from the World Development Indicators, FAOSTAT, and GTAP 6.0 databases provides comparative basic economic and trade indicators for LAC region. Within the region are sub-divided into sub-regions, and for each region and sub-region the case study are shown separately together with an aggregate of that sub-region s non-studied. Due to the very limited data availability, all the with a population of less than 1 million in 2000 (except Barbados and Saint Lucia), plus Cuba and Puerto Rico have not been included. The tables begin with summary data for the period , and growth data for Then each one-page table shows annual data for the 45-year period from 1960 to Apart from the series on black market premium (compiled by Easterly), on labor force, agricultural employment, agricultural land and the section on production, supply and export of agricultural commodities taken from the FAO, and those marked with * in the table of contents computed from the GTAP6.1 database (or version 6.2 when specified), all the other data have been retrieved from the World Bank s World Development Indicators (April 2006). Definitions of the various variables can be found in the WDI section of the World Bank s website. Time series of applied ad valorem tariff (AHS) data from 1988 to 2005 are collected from UNCTAD-TRAINS using the WITS system 1. These tariffs correspond to trade weighted HS6 digits compiled at GTAP sectoral level for primary agriculture and processed food, and aggregates for primary agriculture, processed food, and primary non agriculture. Effectively applied tariffs for 1 In the absence of a corresponding trade flow for a given tariff, WITS seeks for a matching trade flow in COMTRADE, either by direct or inverted trade (collecting exports to region x). These are exclusively ad valorem tariffs and thus do not include ad valorem equivalent of specific tariffs.

3 the year 2001 reported in the last table of the basic trade indicators come instead from the GTAP6.1 database. They are obtained through a joint CEPII / ITC project, known as MAcMAps, which calculates HS6 bilateral tariff including ad valorem tariff equivalent of specific and compound tariffs and key non-tariff barriers such as tariff rate quotas (TRQs). Five-year averages for the period are computed by averaging all the available annual data within the period. However, average percentages and ratios for single between two variables are computed by considering only those years for which observations are available for both series. Growth rates are calculated consistently with WDI statistical procedures, i.e. by fitting a linear regression trend to the logarithmic annual values whenever at least half of the observations in the period are available. The revealed comparative Advantage (RCA) indexes are computed as the product group s share of a region s exports as a percentage of that product group s share of global merchandise exports. The service sector is derived as a residual, from GDP less agriculture and industry. The available tables and indicators are: Description of aggregate sectors, as referred to in the GTAP database Sources List of and regional aggregates National as % of world, (A) Population Labor force Agricultural workers GDP Agricultural GDP Land Agricultural land Total exports of goods and services Agricultural and food exports Agricultural and food imports National as % of world, (B) GDP per capita
