During this third week, we will finish our discussion on Gross Domestic Product components, covering exports, imports, and the Keynes multiplier. Exports and imports are critical to robust GDP growth as no country can make or produce everything alone. Hence, to better understand how economic growth could benefit from international trade is also essential to understand whether a country may envisage better domestic productivity onwards.
