Trade in a Bottle: Identifying Import Bottlenecks in International Trade

Country Matrix

For 2010, the matrix below shows Estonia's number of import bottlenecks for different combinations of minimum import share (%) and minimum import value (USD). Red parentheses show bottlenecks from Danger Zone countries, and lime square brackets show bottlenecks involving Critical Goods.
