The total value of entrepot trade refers to the total value of goods involved in entrepot trade activities in a certain region or country within a certain period. Entrepot trade means that the country of production and the country of consumption of goods do not directly buy and sell goods, but trade through a third country.
For example, if country A produces goods, country C needs these goods, and country B buys the goods from country A and then resells them to country C, the trade volume involved by country B is included in the total value of entrepot trade.
Statistical analysis of the total value of entrepot trade helps to understand the position and role of a region or country in the international trade industry chain. It can reflect the activity level of the region as a trade transit hub. Different from the total value of general trade, general trade is a direct transaction between the country of production and the country of consumption, while there is a third - country intervention in entrepot trade. Changes in the total value of entrepot trade can provide important references for the formulation of relevant policies and the layout of trade strategies by enterprises.
