A Panel Data Analysis of Bangladesh's Trade: The Gravity Model Approach

Abstract

The main goal of the research is to examine the variables that affect Bangladesh's trade flows' size, dispersion, and level of efficiency between 2006 and 2019. For a fourteen-year period, we concentrated our discussion on the trade flows between Bangladesh and particular nations. The main objective was to present a summary of recent trade flows in Bangladesh and to suggest some creative predictors for these flows. We want to emphasize that the conclusions drawn from our empirical study depend on the very brief time frame that we looked at, and that future research may consider extending the reference period in order to better clarify the gravity model's predictions.
