Abstract
Cross‐border e‐commerce has greatly promoted the development of China’s foreign trade, and the cross‐border e‐commerce comprehensive pilot area (CBECCPA, in brief) is the main form for promoting the development of cross‐border e‐commerce. The study aims to find out what factors and to what extent these factors affect the development of the CBECCPAs. Adopting the structural equation model analysis (AMOS) method and the data in 2017 of the 35 CBECCPAs set in the former three batches in China, the paper studies the effects of four main factors, including economic foundation, telecommunication network foundation, e‐commerce logistics, and scientific and technological innovation, on the development of the CBECCPAs. The empirical results show that the economic foundation of the city where a CBECCPA locates has a vital impact, scientific and technological innovation has a quite important effect, e‐commerce logistics has an important impact, and telecommunications network foundation has a slight influence on the development of CBECCPA. On the basis of empirically analysis results, it is suggested to strive to develop the cities’ economy, increase investment in scientific and technological development, attach importance to scientific and technological innovation, and perfect the urban logistics system. Some suggestions are put forward, such as to make great efforts to develop the economy sustainably, to encourage to scientific and technological innovation, and to improve the logistics system. It is meaningful for the construction and development of the fourth and fifth batches of CBECCPAs.
Highlights
IntroductionIn 2020, the transaction scale of cross-border e-commerce industry in China reached a new breakthrough of 10.5 trillion yuan, the penetration rate of the cross-border e-commerce industry exceeded 30% to 33.29%, and the total retail import and export trade of cross-border e-commerce reached 1.69 trillion yuan
In recent years, cross-border e-commerce has developed rapidly
As a pilot area in China, a lot of good practice have been explored in CBECCPAs, such as the two platforms of cross-border e-commerce, online integrated services and offline industrial park, six regulation and service systems of information sharing, financial services, intelligent logistics, e-commerce integrity, statistical monitoring, and risk prevention and control
Summary
In 2020, the transaction scale of cross-border e-commerce industry in China reached a new breakthrough of 10.5 trillion yuan, the penetration rate of the cross-border e-commerce industry exceeded 30% to 33.29%, and the total retail import and export trade of cross-border e-commerce reached 1.69 trillion yuan. As one of the new forms of international trade, cross-border e-commerce is of great significance to the formation and development of the new patterns of “international and domestic double cycle.”.
