1 Competitiveness of Finnish forest sector: influence of globalization and international policies on operating environment and competition Suomen metsäsektorin kilpailukyky: analyysi globalisaation ja kansainvälisen politiikan vaikutuksista toimintaympäristöön ja kilpailuun (KILPO)
2 Outline 1. Basic information on KILPOresearch project 2. Motivation for our research + 1 slide on the first results!
3 Targeted research call of Metsämiesten Säätiö : Metsämiesten Säätiö haluaa edistää Suomen metsäsektorin kansainvälisen kilpailukyvyn kehittämistä ja sitä tukevaa kansainvälistä politiikkaa, mihin liittyen Säätiö asettaa haettavaksi 1-2 tohtorikoulutusapurahaa.

13 Many ways to measure competitiveness / competitive advantage Multidimensional by nature, no single measure exists for competitive advantage/competitiveness, dependent on the focus of interest: cost based real competitiveness? short-term long-term? firm industry national level? Michael Porter s (1990) model 1) Factors of production 2) Demand conditions 3) Related industries (cluster effects) 4) Firms strategies 5) Technology 6) Innovation system 7) Policy and regulation Firm level: resources, capabilities and strategic choices F
14 Insights from some previous studies on forestry and forest industry competitiveness National level: Forest sector renewal a focus in previous large-scle futures projects (MMS/Hetemäki, Seppälä ja Uusivuori, UEF Metsäalan tulevaisuusfoorumi with its background papers): new products in bioenergy, services Regional level: Recent international study by University of Toronto (Mehotra ja Kant 2010) based on managerial survey indicated that Europe is in a weaker position in comparison to NA, SA and Asia in terms of factor markets Analysis of firm level competitiveness in Finnish sawmilling industry emphasized more networks, marketing and management (intangible resources) as better financial performance in firm level (Lähtinen et al. 2009, Toppinen et al. 2011)
15 World Economic Forum: Finland ranks 3rd globally in competitiveness (Sept. 2012)
16 EVA2013: Citizen s perceptions on the source of decreasing competitiveness of Finnish corporate sector (N=2023, Jan Taloustutkimus)
17 Paul Krugman: Competitiveness is a dangerous obsession (1994, Foreign Affairs) obsession with competitiveness is not only wrong but dangerous, skewing domestic policies and threatening the international economic system trying to define the competitiveness of a nation is much more problematic than defining that of a corporation
18 Factors driving investment in planted forests: a comparison between OECD and non-oecd countries (Korhonen, J., Cubbage, F., Toppinen, A. & Kuuluvainen, J. 2013, submitted Journal of Forest Economics) Panel data regression analysis: comparision of three models: pooled OLS, fixed/random effects + long term averages Data for 1990, 2000, 2005, and 2010; 19 OECD countries and 21 non-oecd countries Dependent variable: Area of planted forest (FAO) Two main findings: 1) The more developed the country and its forestry sector, the more emphasis falls on the macroeconomic and institutional environment to maintain a globally competitive position, 2) in non-oecd countries the institutional and macroeconomic challenges seem less important in driving planted forest area development Macroeconomic factors Institutional challenges Forest sectorial factors GDP (market size) Banking credit (credit availability) Foreign direct investments (path depency) Tariffs (barriers to trade) Corruption Unemployment Productivity (forest growth) Roundwood harvests (industrial capacity)
