“…Cross-border e-commerce is built on an unrestrained, overt, far-reaching, and general global trade platform, on which billions of consumers and MSMEs are directly related across the globe. It enables global relationships and interactions [41]. In 2015, although the market penetration rate of China's cross-border e-business was very high, the growth rate of international trade was slow.…”

This paper reviews the primary scientific articles applicable to the logistics industry, and specifically those relating to cross-border e-commerce in China. The authors focused on reviewing the articles about the current status of cross-border e-commerce in China and the factors affecting its development, with the aim of highlighting literature gaps. The authors used a systematic literature review (SLR) to identify, gather, and analyze 60 primary papers selected from international peer-reviewed journals and international conference proceedings between 2001 and 2020. Chinese cross-border e-commerce has experienced a trend of steady progress, although several challenges remain. These challenges include, but are not limited to, low custom clearance efficiency, complex monitoring and supervision, tax rebate settlement challenges, payment risks, insufficient talent within the Chinese industry, and the lack of scientific management guidelines. The significant contributions of this paper include critical highlights of the current gaps and future research themes.

“…Han and Kim (2019) tested a research model to analyze the influence mechanism of purchase intention in CBEC and found that consumer informedness positively affects purchase intention. In addition, Cho and Lee (2017) conducted an empirical study using panel data from different countries to identify the various factors associated with cross-border purchases. The results showed that relative to the maritime network, the air transport network was negatively associated with the degree of crossborder purchases.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of product description and involvement on purchase intention in a cross-border e-commerce (CBEC) setting from a psychological perspective. Design/methodology/approach This study proposes a research model of purchase intention in CBEC based on the involvement theory and commitment-involvement theory. The research model was tested using the covariance-based structural equation modeling technique. Data were collected from consumers on a popular CBEC platform in China. Findings A high-quality product description has no significant positive effect on purchase intention, but it has significant positive effects on product cognitive involvement, product affective involvement, platform enduring involvement and platform situational involvement. In addition, product affective involvement, platform enduring involvement and platform situational involvement all have significant positive effect on purchase intention, but this effect is not significant in the relationship between product cognitive involvement and purchase intention. Practical implications This study calls for sellers to optimize product descriptions on CBEC platforms in order to attract more buyers and generate more profits. Originality/value This study integrates two theories of involvement into the research model in the CBEC context. Based on this model, the authors analyzed how product description affects purchase intention under the joint influence of two involvement factors.

“…The impact of tariff barriers on trade has decreased in the past decade due to globalisation and geographical regionalisation (Márquez-Ramos and Martínez-Zarzoso, 2011;Sakyi et al, 2017;Cho and Lee, 2017). In an international trade environment of declining tariffs (Portugal-Perez and Wilson, 2012), other trade cost components have gained importance as determinants of trade patterns worldwide.…”

Purpose Asia has been transformed into a well-regulated dynamic platform for trade and is today world’s fastest-developing economic region. However, the increasing cross-border economic activities create new opportunities for corruption. The purpose of this paper is to assess the impact of corruption on trade facilitation using logistics performance index (LPI). This paper also examines the moderating effect of governance or government effectiveness (GE) on the relationship between corruption and LPI within Asian countries. Design/methodology/approach A panel of time-series data from year 2007 to 2014 of 26 Asian countries was collected for analysis. Static linear panel models which comprised of pooled ordinary least squares, fixed-effect model and random-effect model were utilised to analyse the panel data. Findings The findings show that corruption significantly affects LPI and each of the six dimensions in LPI. The results also show that governance or GE has a moderating effect on the relationship between corruption and LPI. Practical implications This study benefits Asian governments to gain a better understanding on influences of corruption on trade facilitation and triggering suggestions of a government role in the relationship. Practically, the results could be used as a guideline in improving national LPI. Besides, the findings could be used to support policy decision to modify corruption regulations at the national and regional levels. Originality/value This study reveals that the optimistic view of sands in the wheel overcomes the dark side of the grease in the wheel practices. To be corrupt free or less corrupt is a rare and inimitable resource capability that makes nations logistically competitive.
