Other sector showed steadiness in its competitive position, favorable or not, which resulted in the difficult identification of structural trends. Furthermore, only a few group of products had RCA during the period of time the study takes place, which is a trend that can be observed to reduce with time, in addition to the observation that there is an indifferent correlation between the existence of a RCA and the performance of the exporter or a good competitive position. Therefore, the effects reached through the growth of the exporter have been essential for the logic of mutually beneficial commerce. |
