Abstract

This study analyzes the trade network within the global semiconductor value chain (GVC) and examines its structural evolution from 2007 to 2023. Utilizing the CEPII-BACI international trade dataset, we track the bilateral trade flows of semiconductor products(classified by HS codes) and apply network analysis techniques to identify key hub countries and structural linkages. The findings indicate a gradual diversification of semiconductor supply chain centrality, shifting beyond traditional hubs such as the United States, Taiwan, South Korea, and China, with emerging regional players assuming greater roles. Furthermore, by assessing major trade pathways and interdependencies, this study evaluates structural vulnerabilities and supply chain risks within the semiconductor GVC. The insights from this research contribute to a deeper understanding of network dynamics in the semiconductor industry's global restructuring and provide policy implications for supply chain resilience and strategic trade positioning.
