Steam revolution Reduction in transportation costs Old Globalization (goods imports & exports)
Digital revolution Reduction in communications costs New Globalization (GVCs & MNEs)
Finland & Sweden:− Leaders/winners of Old globalization!− How does New Globalization play out?

⅓ of business employmentdirectly serves GVCs
40% of gross exports consist of imports
40% global corporate 50% employment abroad
20% business value-added30% by foreign-owned units

How to Study GVCs?• Micro: Specific products
– Enables the analysis of, e.g., transfer pricing
• Meso: Surveying multinational enterprises– Enables some generalization
• Macro: Global input-output data– Provides an “on average” aggregate view

Mapping out the whole global supply chain from raw materials / idea generation to final purchase/use
– All direct & indirect hard & soft inputs
Value added by actors (firms/individuals), functions (R&D…)
& geographies (locations/countries)

• Corporate sweet spots in GVCs– Brand owner, orchestrator
– Interfacing with customers
– Gatekeeper in the chain
– Core tech provider
• Value capturing jobs– High-level ”supporting” service tasks
– Creation & management of intangibles

Stylized observations
• Intangibles dominate also in manufactures– Internal & market services, creation & appropriation of IP
• Value migrates to earlier/later stages (cf. “smile”)– Direct assembly/processing has diminished over time
• Intensity of interaction within value chains varies– Trad. services often internationalize via ownership; value added in digital is fluid

New Glob. Changes become:
– More sudden– Shocks with immediate consequences
– More individual– We no longer go up & down “as countries”
– More unpredictable– Winners & losers hard to know a priori
– More uncontrollable– National policies are less influential

Policy? Old & Consistent with New Globalization
• Enterprise• Laissez-faire• Market competition• Creative destruction (try often, scale or fail fast, try again)• Public investments in education, research & infrastructure• Financial/business environment conducive to private investment
• Labor• Ease of hiring & firing• Cherish labor market churning
• Social• Incentive-compatible social transfers
• Trade• Reduce hindrances for all cross-border flows
• Hard question: What if other countries play dirty?

Final observations• Brexit & Trump:
free trade became a casualty… with consequences on GVCs
• Global value chains are not about to disappear & the phenomenon still has room to grow
• Fin & Swe well-positioned in competing for GVCs’ high value added activities
• Needed: Internal agility & sustained investment at the new front line of global competition –individuals’ skills & competences.
