The focus of this paper is a global examination of how different export sectors react to real devaluations in the short term. The disaggregated nature of the data allows a closer analysis of the underlying cross-export differences in exchange rate movements.

Therefore, sector specific policy solutions are more advisable than implementing a uniform devaluation on a country’s export portfolio. We gathered export data from 67 countries around the world across 65 export sectors at the two-digit SITC level, for the years 1976-2006. [-]
