Construction and Influencing Factors Analysis of Digital Trade Development Indicator System:Based on Panel Data of 55 Countries
Measuring the level of digital trade development is the starting point for further research and formulation of digital trade development strategies.Starting from the five dimensions of basic support,trade business,innovation capacity,trade scenario and trade guarantee,this paper constructs a digital trade development indicator system containing 5 primary indicators,11 secondary indicators and 23 tertiary indi-cators to measure digital trade development in 55 countries from 2011 to 2021,and test the influence factors of the level of digital trade development by constructing a regression model.The results show that while the overall level of global digital trade development is increasing there is also a certain trend of differentiation,potentially leading to an exacerbation of developmental disparities among countries;on the whole,the level of digital trade development is significantly higher in developed countries than in developing countries,showing relatively small annual changes and maintaining a stable and high level;China's level of digital trade development has shown a continuous catching-up trend in recent years,demonstrating significant po-tential for further advancement,but there exists an imbalance in the development of sub-indicators;the levels of economic development,infrastructure,business environment and cutting-edge technology,political sys-tem,economic system,and legal system all exert a significant positive impact on the level of digital trade development,and the impact on OECD countries and non-OECD countries is heterogeneous.
