China has achieved immense success in FDI and foreign trade for thirty years since reform and opening. Up to the end of 2007, China is not only the largest developing country of attracting foreign capital during the consecutive fifteen years but also the third country of total amount of exporting and importing during the consecutive four years. The growth methods of our country's FDI and foreign trade are extensive. In the period of FDI and foreign trade growing fast, we pay a large amount of cost of energy resource, ecology and environment, and reduce the workers' benefits, and result in frequent trade friction. During the foreign and domestic economic environment change, it is necessary for our country to adjust the strategy of using foreign capital and transfer growth ways of foreign trade for promoting our country's continuous development.Following the economic pattern of global services forming and global services trade developing fast, the developing level of services industry and services trade is an important symbol to measure a country' modernization level. The focal point of competition transfers from goods trade to services trade. To every country, how to develop services trade quickly and strengthen the international competitiveness becomes the central issue every country cares for. Compared with goods trade, services trade has advantages of environmental protection, saving energy and highness of additional value. It is necessary choice for China to develop services trade in order to transfer the growing way of foreign trade and become a strong country in foreign trade. What's more, raising the proportion of using FDI in services industry and promoting services trade's development effectively are important channels to raise the quality and benefit of utilizing FDI. So, the fuction study on services trade of FDI in this dissertation has important reference value and practical significance. In view of theoretical significance, this study not only extends the theory of trade effectiveness of FDI but also enrich the content of the services trade theory.Beginning with carding the existed research and analyzing basic theory, this dissertation uses the qualitative and quantitative systems to explain the effectiveness of services trade, and finally the corresponding suggestion is proposed.The first part is the preface of dissertation, which elaborates the background and significance of the study, and refers to the innovations and shortcoming, and gives definitions and makes category of study clearly.The second part summarizes existed documents, and draws on the experience of theory and method, at the same time, seek the point of penetration of study and innovation.The third part is the theoretical basic of this dissertation. It introduces the model of, and sets up the model of trade substitution and trade promotion in view of the effectiveness of trade in FDI. Besides, because of the formal and statistical particularity, this dissertation proposes the position of trade-promoting effectiveness, and analyzes the mechanism of FDI promoting services trade.The forth part analyzes quantitative effectiveness, that is, FDI influences on services trade quantitative growth. Through analyzing the growth channels of export and import promoted by FDI, and FDI is divided into two parts: FDI in services industry and FDI in manufacturing industry according to different influence channels of FDI. Based on qualitative analysis, regression model is adopted to test positivism of interrelationship between FDI and export and import in order to support the former theory, thus raise the demonstration dynamics.The fifth part analyzes the qualitative effectiveness, that is, the influence of FDI on services trade development. In this dissertation, FDI has influence on services trade development by analyzing the international competition raising effectiveness, the structure adjusting effectiveness and employment promoting effectiveness of services trade.The sixth part proposes the suggestion how to promote Chinese services trade rapidly according to the services trade's development effectiveness. First, the policy of introducing FDI must be adopted continuously, but the strategic goal must be transferred from chasing quantity to quality. Second, the points of penetration must be held, that is, driving the export of services trade by export-oriented FDI in order to promote coordinate growth between goods trade and services trade, encouraging FDI entering into offshoring of services field, developing Chinese offshoring of services and driving services trade export through outward FDI.The innovations of this dissertation are breaking through the study on trade effectiveness of FDI limited in goods trade, and systematically studying on the services trade effectiveness of FDI, and proposing the two definitions of qualitative effectiveness quantitative effectiveness, and proposing the view that FDI has the promoting effectiveness on services trade.Based on the theories of international economics, industrial economics, developing economics and econometrics, many methods, that is, standard analysis combined with positivism analysis, qualitative analysis combined with quantitative analysis, static analysis combined with dynamic analysis, are adopted to study systemically on service trade effectiveness of FDI. In order to elaborate my study intention, this dissertation puts a lot of graphs and forms, which stress the relationship of variables and regularity.
