Changes in scores indicate shifts in absolute levels of connectedness. Changes in ranks provide comparisons of a country’s relative standing among the countries covered in the index. Connectedness Score Trend Below the scores summary, each profile contains a line chart showing the country’s overall scores for each year from 2005 to 2013. Please note that the vertical axis in the connectedness score trend graph is calibrated in accordance with each country’s individual level of connectedness in order to allow for maximum granularity. The progression of the graph thus needs to be understood in relation to the individual scaling of the axis. Breadth Depth The depth section provides each country’s outward and inward depth scores and ranks at the pillar and component levels. Outward/Inward: Results are reported separately by direction. Outward trade flows refer to exports, inward trade flows refer to imports, and so on. Ranks: Each of the ranks is followed by a slash (/) and the number of countries for which data are available for that metric. For example, the Netherlands’ rank of 7/131 for Outward FDI Stock (% of GDP) means that the Netherlands has the 7th highest score on that component, out of 131 countries for which data are available. For details on the minimum data requirements for displaying pillar level results, please refer to Chapter 5. Levels: Depth levels are reported using measures that compare international flows and stocks to relevant indicators of the size of a country’s domestic economy, as described in Chapter 5. The units depend on the domestic comparison employed, and are described in parentheses after each component’s name. Thus, for example, Merchandise Trade is displayed as a percent, because the domestic comparison is “(% of GDP).” For a list of data sources, please refer to Appendix B.

DHL Global Connectedness Index 2014 127 Key Rooted Scores Mapand Trends The upper right corner of each profile contains a map where all other countries are sized in proportion to their share of the profiled country’s merchandise exports, and are colored based on the profiled country’s share of their imports. The profiled country’s proportion of the map area is held constant across all of these maps to make them more directly comparable. Thus, these maps do not show differences in the share of exports in the profiled countries’ economic output. Furthermore, these maps show gross exports; no adjustments are made to remove double-counting of re-exported goods. These maps were generated based on data from the International Monetary Fund Direction of Trade Statistics Database and the United Nations Commodity Trade Database (Comtrade). For additional context, a list of major export products is also provided for Connectedness Score Trend each country. The source for these lists is the CIA World Factbook. Rooted Map Rooted Map: Netherlands’s Netherlands’s Merchandise Merchandise Exports, Exports, 2013 2013 6 Top Export Destinations 1. Germany (26%) 2. Belgium (13%) 3. France (9%) 4. U.K. (9%) 5.

China (2%) 5 1 8 9 10 Major Export Products Machinery and equipment, chemicals, fuels; foodstuffs Netherlands’s Share of Partners’ Imports 15% 8% 5% 3% 1% 0.5% unknown Depth Breadth The breadth section parallels the depth section described to the left. However, rather than showing raw breadth scores (which do not have meaningful units), the intra-regional share of each country’s flows is shown. In some cases, these ratios were computed based on only a sample of a country’s flows for which partner-by-partner data were available. Thus, these shares should be treated as approximate, especially for the telephone calls component, where such data limitations were most severe. For a list of data sources, please refer to Appendix B.

A diamond is used to mark the directional balance, calculated as the difference of the outward minus inward scores.
