The export concentration index measures how far a country's merchandise exports are concentrated in a few products rather than spread across many. It runs from 0, exports spread evenly across every product group, to 1, a single product — the classic measure of how exposed a country's export earnings are to the price of one or two goods.

Export Concentration Index, 2010 covers 209 countries on 3 measures. Iraq is highest, at 0.946495; Italy is lowest, at 0.051988. The middle country reads 0.293327. Against 2009, 209 values changed (120 up, 89 down), the same countries are covered.

One year of the 2026 release
Every year in this series comes from UNCTAD’s 2026 release, recalculated on one method, so a change from one year to the next is not a revision. It can differ from what was first published for 2010.
