摘要

作为中国实施新一轮对外开放战略的重要区域政策安排，自贸区政策对出口贸易有着重要影响。文章基于中国设立自贸区的准自然实验，利用中国海关数据库的出口数据和中国地级市2007-2018年的统计数据，评估了自贸区对企业出口的影响。分析发现，自贸区极大地促进了地方出口。自贸区对出口活动具有负空间外部性，降低了周边城市的出口绩效。自贸区的出口效应具有连续性和动态性的特点。不同地点的自贸区对企业出口的边际影响存在异质性。这些发现为从空间维度更全面地理解设立自贸区对企业出口的影响提供了经验证据。

Platform advantages or "policy trap" for neighbors? Export effects of establishing free trade zone in China: A quasi-natural experiment

As the important regional policy arrangements for China to implement a new round of opening-up strategy, the free trade zone (FTZ) policy have significant impacts on export trade. Based on the quasi-natural experiment of China's establishment of FTZs, the article evaluates the impact of the FTZs on enterprises' exports by using export data from Chinese Customs database and statistics of prefecture-level cities in China from 2007 to 2018. The analyses found that the FTZs has significantly promoted local exports. The FTZs has negative spatial externalities on export activities, which reduces the export performance of neighboring cities. The export effects of FTZs present continuous and dynamic characteristics. There is heterogeneity in the marginal impact of FTZs in different locations on the exports of enterprise. These findings provide empirical evidence for a more comprehensive understanding of the impact of the establishment of FTZs on enterprises' exports in the spatial dimension.
