Domestic Consumer Demand Preferences and High-quality Development of Chinas Trade
This paper focuses on the perspective of domestic consumer demand preferences to exam-ine the high-quality development of China's trade.Using the China Custom Database,Chinese In-dustrial Enterprises Database,National Public Service Platform for Standards Information Database,WIOD and CEPII database from 2000 to 2014,this study investigates the impact of the upgrading of domestic consumer demand preferences on the import and export product quality of en-terprises in China.This paper finds that the upgrading of domestic consumer demand preferences can effectively improve the quality of imported products,but it does not promote the quality of the exported products,that is,the quality of exported products deviates from the upgrading of consum-er demand preferences.Supply-demand imbalance and the mismatch between the domestic and in-ternational standards are important reasons for the deviation of export product quality.In the de-mand side,the outward shift of high-end demand leads to a disconnect between supply and demand within the domestic market.In the supply side,the industries in the upstream of the value chain and the supply of intermediate products have failed to keep up with the pace of demand upgrading,which further exacerbates the deviation of export product quality.We should seize the opportunity of consumer demand upgrading,build a domestic circulation system that matches supply and de-mand,promote the alignment of domestic and international standards,and carry out supply-side structural reforms in the upstream of the value chain,thereby achieving high-quality development of trade.
