货款回收与中国企业出口行为

Trade Credit and Chinese Firm's Export Behavior

改革开放以来,随着中国出口贸易量的迅速增长,中国已经成为世界上遭遇出口低价竞争反倾销起诉最多的国家。关于中国企业出口低价竞争动因的分析也开始成为经济学研究的一个热门话题,这也正是本文选题的背景。根据国家统计局工业企业数据,本文研究发现,相对于无出口企业而言,出口企业的货款回收情况更好;;在遭遇反倾销起诉较为严重的产业中,出口企业和无出口企业的货款回收情况差异更大。本文的研究对于探索中国企业低价出口竞争的原因,从而对国家相关政策的制定具有较为重要的参考价值。

Export has surged in the past decades in China and price competition is a common strategy of Chinese firms,so that China suffers the most frequent anti-dumping accusation in WTO. This paper argues that to reduce involuntary trade credit is an important purpose of Chinese firms when they export. Using the data obtained form National Bureau of Statistics of China,this paper finds that the proportion of account receivable to sales is lower in exporters than their non-exporting counterparts,and that industries suffered anti-dumping on higher frequency are just those who can improve their account receivable through export much more.
