- Abstract
With the promotion of trade liberalization and the development of the Internet, more and more enterprises are doing business and investing in the countries and regions along the "Belt and Road". This paper estimated an augmented gravity model of trade that specifically includes statistical capacity indicators as explanatory variable and measures the potential of China's iron and steel exports to the countries and regions along the “Belt and Road”. The model was estimated by using bilateral exports from 63 countries and regions along the “Belt and Road” with data for the period 2013–2020 with the Poisson pseudo-maximum likelihood (PPML) method. Study found that the effect of the methodology assessment of statistical capacity and the source data assessment of statistical capacity on exports was positive and significant. The effect of the periodicity and timeliness assessment of statistical capacity was negative and significant. The effect of improving the number of tariff lines in the national nomenclature, the rate of common spoken language and the average of all Ad valorem duties were positive and significant.
