Here is the original:
"Així, d’una banda, és ben conegut que les economies petites observen, de forma habitual, unes "taxes d’obertura" més elevades, i molts treballs han contrastat l’existència d’una relació positiva entre obertura i creixement"
Opening rates? Opening of what? I'm deep into a long economics translation and inspiration is lacking as to what this could involve. Thanks in advance for your help.
The context is a sociological / economic study about the relationship between the size of states and their economic performance.

Trade intensity
This would appear to be the term used, at least by the World Bank, based on the definition below in Spanish.:
Notes
1 “Trade intensity” is defined as the quotient of (real) exports plus (real)
imports, over (real) GDP
2 World Economic Forum : Latin America Agenda, Latin America Business
Summit, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 20-22 November 2002

Another example, which seems to bear out the thrust of your text, that smaller countries show a higher intensity than large ones.
Trade. Australia’s trade intensity (trade/GDP) is relatively low, closer to the low trade intensity of large economies like the USA, Japan and France, than to the high trade intensity of small countries like Ireland, Finland, Sweden and Canada.
