贸易便利化对我国跨境电商出口的影响

The Impact of Trade Facilitation on China’s Cross-Border E-Commerce Exports

摘要: 本文基于贸易便利化视角研究其对我国跨境电商出口贸易的影响。笔者通过构建贸易便利化测评体系，对中国及34个贸易往来国在2012~2016年间的贸易便利化进行测算比较发现，我国贸易便利化水平略高于平均线但远低于发达国家。之后选取2012~2016年间我国对各国跨境电商出口额数据作为被解释变量，进口国GDP、人口、地理距离、贸易便利化指数作为解释变量进行实证研究。结果表明进口国贸易便利化每提高1%，我国跨境电商出口会提高2.574%，且发展中国家贸易便利化水平的提高对我国跨境电商出口的促进作用更加显著。最后，笔者根据贸易便利化水平现状，提出合理建议来改善贸易便利化水平并促进我国跨境电商出口贸易的发展。

Abstract: Based on the perspective of trade facilitation, this paper studies its impact on China’s cross-border e-commerce export trade. By constructing the evaluation system of trade facilitation, the author calculates and compares the trade facilitation of China and 34 trading countries from 2012 to 2016, and finds that the level of trade facilitation of China is slightly higher than the average, but far lower than that of developed countries. Then, the data of China’s cross-border e-commerce exports from 2012 to 2016 are selected as explanatory variables, and the GDP, population, geographical distance and Trade Facilitation Index of importing countries are selected as explanatory variables for empirical research. The results show that for every 1% increase in trade facilitation, China’s cross-border e-commerce exports will increase by 2.574%. Finally, according to the current situation of trade facilitation, the author puts forward reasonable suggestions to improve the level of trade facilitation and promote the development of cross-border e-commerce export trade.
