The 2012 mean is 54x 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.
"TEV" is the World Bank's own term from its Exporter Dynamics Database — not expanded anywhere in its published metadata. Trade-economics convention suggests "Total Export Value", but that is this site's own inference, not a sourced definition.
2011 entrant cohort: 49.8% of new Germany exporters to China were still exporting after 1 year.
