production, exceeding 90% for some sectors. The accompanying graph from the MIT Atlas of<br />

Economic Complexity highlights these product exports.<br />

A multitude of factors are continuously challenging the competitiveness of these products and<br />

firms: global market turbulence, technology disruptions, intra-industry rivalry, extra-industry<br />

forces, regulatory requirements in production processes and product attributes, taxation<br />

changes, fluctuations in factor input cost and availability, alterations in risk insurance, etc.<br />
