Abstract

Within V4 automotive Global Value Chains (GVCs), technologies absorbed by the corporate sector represent a significant impact on the level of value-added created within the economy. Sectoral and geographic targeting of our research is determined by the export of motor vehicles, trailers, and semi-trailers produced in the V4 countries. The article’s main objective was to investigate the role of services provided by V4 countries within GVCs with an emphasis on transport and storage. The authors used the method of linear regression analysis to answer two central research questions. Is there a synergic or spillover effect within the automotive clusters of the V4 countries in creating value-added originating in the logistic services? What role absorption of technology at the firm level in EU27 countries (the most important trading partners of the V4 countries) plays in creating value-added in the V4 automotive sector? Authors found differentiated results within V4 countries, confirming the hypothesis related to technology absorption. Implications for Central European audience: Despite high V4 export performance, the research suggests how to increase the value-added through higher involvement within GVCs (particularly the automotive industry). The paper demonstrates a positive impact of importing transport services from the EU countries to some V4 countries (Slovakia, Czechia, and Poland) and its value-added content in gross exports. For any V4 country, an increase in the quality of the business environment of EU trade partners (measured as the corporate level of technology absorption) results in a lower value-added creation, quite significantly, with lower effect in the case of Czechia, but more than 15% decrease in case of Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia.

V4汽车全球价值链的增值来源:以运输和仓储服务业与企业层面的技术吸收为例
在V4汽车全球价值链(GVCs)中,企业部门吸收的技术对经济中创造的增值水平产生了重大影响。我们研究的部门和地理目标是由V4国家生产的机动车辆、挂车和半挂车的出口决定的。本文的主要目的是调查V4国家提供的服务在全球价值链中的作用,重点是运输和储存。作者运用线性回归分析的方法回答了两个中心研究问题。V4国家的汽车集群在创造源自物流服务的增值方面是否存在协同效应或溢出效应?欧盟27国(V4国家最重要的贸易伙伴)在企业层面吸收技术在V4汽车行业创造增值方面发挥了什么作用?作者在V4国家中发现了不同的结果,证实了与技术吸收有关的假设。对中欧受众的影响:尽管V4出口表现良好,但研究建议如何通过更高程度地参与全球价值链(特别是汽车行业)来增加附加值。本文论证了从欧盟国家进口运输服务对一些V4国家(斯洛伐克、捷克和波兰)的积极影响及其在出口总额中的增值含量。对于任何一个V4国家来说,欧盟贸易伙伴商业环境质量的提高(以企业技术吸收水平衡量)都会导致增加值创造的降低,这一点非常显著,对捷克的影响较小,但对波兰、匈牙利和斯洛伐克的影响超过15%。
