Note(s): ¹New products are identified by a dummy variable that equals 1 if country i achieved an RCA of 1 (or more) in product p at time t conditional on having RCA = 0 in the previous period. ²Compound average growth rate (CAGR) in the export of product p (at 5-years interval). For a more detailed description of the variables and the data sources, please refer to Appendix Table A2.

Source(s): Authors' own calculation. In this Table summary statistics of the variables used in the baseline regressions are presented. Figures for predicted migrants are presented also weighted by a dummy variable that equals to 1 if the origin country (in the case of immigrants) or the destination country (in the case of emigrants) shows a RCA 1
