Research on the Agglomeration Efficiency of Cross border E-commerce Industry from a Regional Perspective——Analysis based on the Super Efficiency SBM Malmquist Model
Cross border e-commerce plays a crucial role in the transformation and development of international trade,and the Yangtze River Delta,Beijing Tianjin Hebei,and Pearl River Delta regions,as the leading economic zones for cross-border e-commerce in China,are very active in foreign trade.Therefore,in order to further understand the agglomeration status of cross-border e-commerce industry,this article selects panel data from the Yangtze River Delta,Beijing Tianjin Hebei,and Pearl River Delta economic zones from 2016 to 2021,and uses the super efficiency SBM Malmquist model to evaluate the efficiency of cross-border e-commerce ag-glomeration in the three economic zones from both static and dynamic dimensions.The results show that the overall efficiency of cross-border e-commerce agglomeration is as follows:Pearl River Delta>Yangtze River Delta>Beijing Tianjin Hebei,and pure techni-cal efficiency and scale efficiency are the main reasons for the difference.Efforts should be made to promote the balanced develop-ment of cross-border e-commerce clusters,strengthen the interconnection of characteristic brands and advantageous resources,tech-nology diffusion and knowledge spillover within the three major economic zones,and enhance regional collaborative cooperation.
