Analysis of Competitiveness of Türkiye Among E7 Countries in Terms of Selected Chapters
Öz
This study aims to analyze the competitiveness of Türkiye, which is among the E7 countries, with other countries in this group in terms of some selected sectors. The Comparative Export Performance (CEP) Index was used to measure competitiveness with these countries. The first five chapters in which Türkiye has achieved the highest increase in exports in the last ten years were considered through HS (Harmonized System) codes. In comparing these chapters, the CEP indexes were calculated using the 2011-2020. Chapters subject to research are 97-Works of art, collector's pieces, and antiques, 81-Other base metals employed in metallurgy and articles thereof, 96-Miscellaneous manufactured articles (pens and brushes, etc.), 75-Nickel and articles thereof and 23-Residues and waste from the food industries, prepared animal fodder. According to the findings, in 97, Türkiye has a higher export performance than Russia and Mexico, and its export performance has also increased against Indonesia since 2016. In 81, Türkiye has a better export performance against India, Indonesia, and Mexico. In, there is a higher export performance than other countries except for China. In 75, the export performance of Türkiye increased against China, India, and Brazil, especially after 2016, and showed a better performance despite a changing graphic with Mexico. Also, in 23, it can be said that although the export performance against China and Mexico has differed over the years, it has gained momentum in this process.
