Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examine the economic impact of the supply chain disruptions immediately following the Great East-Japan Earthquake of March 11th, 2011 using regional IO tables and other regional statistics. To conduct our analysis, we modify the forward linkage methodology to take into account the bottleneck effect in the intermediate input of manufacturing production. We also create our own inter-regional input-output table by combining two different regional IO tables. Our estimates show that the production loss caused by the supply chain disruptions would at least be 0.35% of the country’s GDP. We also analyzed the possible damage mitigating effects of establishing multiple supply chains to cope with potential natural disasters in the future.
