Abstract

This paper firstly reviews the development process of foreign trade in Fujian province, and secondly, by using the data from 1996-2014, the empirical results show that the increase of foreign trade by 1% will lead to the increase of growth rate by 0.147%. Furthermore, our research indicates that it is the structure of the foreign trade rather than the total amount of foreign trade that makes the most significant contribution to the higher growth rate of economy.
