“…Although the last automobiles manufactured in Australia rolled off the assembly line in the end of 2017, publications on this manufacturing sector continued to occur (e.g. Beer, 2018;Truett & Truett, 2018) and to raise attention from academicians. In total, eleven manufacturing sectors were explicitly discussed in the literature portfolio, reasonably representing the Australian manufacturing industry spectrum.…”

IntroductionManufacturing is a relevant component of the Australian economy since it is the seventh-largest employer, the sixth-largest for output, and has the highest business expenditure on research and development (AI Group, 2019). The manufacturing industry also has strong links throughout the Australian economy through the flow of skills, knowledge and goods, using materials and services from other industries (e.g. mining and information and communications technologies) and providing manufactured products such as fertilizer to agriculture, or structural steel to construction (Australia, 2018). Having a diversity of activities, the leading manufacturing sectors in Australia are food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, chemical, and non-metallic minerals (Manufacturers' Monthly, 2019).

“…Historical experience also shows that, under certain conditions, trade liberalisation, in general and FTA-induced, can substantially affect automotive production. One such example is Australia, where trade liberalisation (including an FTA signed with a regional automotive hub such as Thailand) combined with the exchange rate appreciation practically determined the disappearance of the country's automotive production in recent years (Truett;Truett, 2018).…”

This paper investigates the potential effects of the Mercosur-EU agreement for the automotive value chains in Argentina and Brazil, identifying the trade balance movements of each partner. Its main results point to an improved trade balance in most automotive and auto parts products for the EU. Besides differences in international competitiveness, other factors prompt these results, such as differences in production scale between partners, greater tariff preferences granted by Mercosur, greater potential demand for vehicles in Argentina and Brazil than in the EU, higher regulation requirements on product and process quality in the EU market, among others.
