In this paper, we seek to analyze the impact that the ability to produce more sophisticated goods
has on the economic performance of the Western Balkan region and to determine the factors
fostering this process. To do so, we elaborate an export sophistication index, à la Hausmann. The
outcomes obtained show that export sophistication has a positive and significant effect on growth
in these economies. Additionally, we found that this process is driven more by the sophistication
in medium-skill and technology-intensive manufactures goods rather than through sophistication
in high-skill goods. Our findings also confirm that a greater participation in international
production networks and a better institutional environment stimulates the upgrading of exports,
and the subsequent economic growth of these economies. [-]
