Methodology

The CDI™ Score (China Dependency Index) is a composite metric developed by Asiabits that measures a country's strategic dependency on China for a given industry. The score ranges from 0 (no dependency) to 100 (total dependency) and is calculated from multiple weighted factors: China's global production share, availability of alternative suppliers, estimated switching costs, and the strategic importance of the supply chain. Country-specific scores are further adjusted based on import patterns, domestic production capacity, and bilateral trade relationships. Sources include IEA, USGS, BloombergNEF, World Steel Association, IAEA, GWEC, Clarkson Research, IFR, Dell'Oro Group, Counterpoint Research, and others.
