By engaging in IIT, a country can reduce the number of similar goods it produces, and benefit from scale economies. Higher IIT ratios suggest that these sources of gains are being exploited. May also indicate that adjustment costs would be lower with trade expansion. The IIT index measures the degree of overlap between imports and exports in the same commodity category, with a value of 1 indicating pure intra-industry trade and a value of 0 indicating pure inter-industry trade.
