Trade partner concentration — by country, all commodities, current

How concentrated Guatemala's trade is across its top partner countries, computed from currently-tracked trade flows (not the historical 1997–2015 World Bank dataset). Measures country-to-country concentration only — Guatemala's trade_flows records don't carry product-level detail to break this down further.

Historical Exporter Dynamics
Historical dataset — World Bank Exporter Dynamics Database, 1997–2014, frozen. The World Bank has not published a newer edition; this never updates. Guatemala also has a single-year firm entry/exit snapshot on /labor-market.

Firm-level entry/exit/survival dynamics for Guatemala's exporting firms, whole economy (not broken down by product) so every figure below is a genuine national rate — never an average across incompatible product categories. See /exporter-dynamics to compare Guatemala against all 68 covered countries.

The 2013 mean is 44x the median — a small number of large exporting firms account for most of the export value; the typical firm exports far less than the average figure suggests.

Entrant survival curve — 2012 cohort of new exporting firms: 37.3% still exporting after 1 year — later years not yet available for this cohort (the World Bank vintage ends before enough time passed to observe them).
