Openness index

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Trade as a share of global GDP (openness index)

The openness Index is an economic metric calculated as the ratio of a country's total trade, the sum of exports plus imports, to the country's gross domestic product.[1] = (Exports + Imports)/(Gross Domestic Product)[2]

The interpretation of the openness index is, the higher the index, the larger the influence of international trade on domestic activities and the stronger that country's economy.[3]
