Mechanism And Empirical On Regional Informatization’s Effect On Export Sophistication

In the era of rapid development of the information economy, the level of information has become an important force in promoting economic development and trade growth countries or regions. Increase in the level of exports complexity can transform and upgrading of export-oriented industries and enhance the value-added export.Study on the level of information and the development of foreign trade, especially exports complexity of the relationship between both theoretical value seems more practical significance. The few existing research relationship between the level of information and the complexity of the outlet, the outlet mechanism and empirical analysis of the complexity of the inquiry and therefore affect the level of information has important theoretical and practical significance for China to achieve a smooth transition of economic trade.Based on Chinese provincial-level perspective of the impact of information on the level of exports complexity. On the basis of systematically summarized and related research and practice, Firstly, compare the advantages and disadvantages and scope of the existing methods of evaluating the level of information. The use of multi-disciplinary research methods, multifaceted investigation and analysis, Create a new level of information for the special situation of each region of China measurement indicator system so that the system has a universal adaptability, to establish a new provincial level of information index. Using 2006-2014 Calculate export complex index export trade data from DRCNET, we create a new calculation method in order to eliminate the intermediate product to give a more accurate indicator of the results, the last two indicators on the results of a cross-analysis of longitudinally. In the part of theoretical analysis, this paper based on firm heterogeneity analytical framework discussed the microscopic mechanism of information affect exports complexity, And further explore how information technology affect exports complexity through direct and indirect effects of internalization of external effects of the two channels. Next, this paper starting from the national and regional level, Study with Provincial Panel model information level of complexity affect exports, and explore the different levels of complexity that exports of information technology impact of the size by quantile regression. Through empirical analysis concluded:(1) The overall level of information to improve Our Country terms of trade will rise, But there are large differences in various regions, The eastern region and the level of information complexity exports were the highest, Western region lags behind, Found from the overall trend of China was upgraded models go hand in hand, Midwest is accelerating to catch up to the eastern region.(2) The level of information exist "ceiling effect" to promote the role of export complexity right. That is the role of information technology in promoting exports of medium complexity level peaked forming elements accumulate advancing acceleration phase. But at a low Export Sophistication level,Match feature low initial cost higher cause certain inhibition, The stage at a high level, there is a marginal factor the effect of diminishing,the level of information is such that the maximum value can not play.(3) By regression analysis it can see, Level of economic development is still the main driving force for the promotion of export Sophistication. Although there are elements of information technology to promote positive effect on exports Sophistication, But the contribution is still relatively low, This has a direct impact on the current level of information technology, information consumption capability, innovation and the development of China and so on.Based on the above analysis, this paper puts forward policy recommendations:adjust the industrial structure, the information industry as the main driver of exports led economic growth; inter-regional co-ordinate the development of information technology to enhance the quality of the people; establish information system of official statistics; understand the complexity of the region’s exports of difference, to achieve balanced regional development; promote high-tech products export trade, to achieve industrial upgrading.
