In 2013, the APEC economic leaders agreed upon a global value chains (GVC) framework that would initiate APEC’s strategic work in creating an enabling environment for GVC development and cooperation. Over time this framework encouraged the creation of a TiVA database for the APEC region—an initiative that was officially kicked off by China and the United States in 2014. The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) is co-leading this initiative at the request of USTR. This initiative has since produced two reports, a standalone data portal hosted on the APEC website, and a summary dataset of some key TiVA indicators. These reports and data links are available under the Publications and Data tabs.
