Structural Decomposition Analysis

From Open Risk Manual

Definition

Structural Decomposition Analysis (SDA) aims at decomposing the total amount of change in some aspect of an economy. In an input-output framework, the total change in gross output (or in any economic variable that is function of it) can be broken into technical changes, final-demand changes, and other elements of the system. In the case of multi-regional systems, the Leontief-like multiplier matrix contains information on both technical coefficients and trade proportions[1]
