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. Directional and asymmetric by design — each block below is one country's own self-reported data on its firms exporting to the other side, not a shared corridor figure.

Portugal's own reported data on Portugal firms exporting to Spain (1997–2012).
