“…Since this model can consider human obstacles, it has been widely used. For example, Ravishankar and Stack (2014) uses the stochastic frontier model to study the trade potential of Eastern Europe, and Viorica (2015) and Tamini (2016) study the trade potential and trade efficiency of EU member states and North African countries. There are also many related studies in China.…”

Based on China’s export trade data of equipment manufacturing to countries along the Belt and Road from 2006 to 2018, this paper uses a stochastic frontier gravity model to analyze the influencing factors and export trade efficiency of China’s export trade. The results indicate that: 1) Larger economic scale and population size, closer geographical distance, common boundaries and a common language can significantly increase China’s exports of equipment manufacturing products to countries along the route. 2) Signing free trade agreements with partners, increasing trade openness, and improving infrastructure construction can significantly improve China’s export trade level, while excessive tariff levels will inhibit export trade efficiency. 3) In recent years, the efficiency of China’s export trade to countries along the Belt and Road has improved, but the overall level is still low, and the efficiency of export trade to different countries varies greatly. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen international trade cooperation, improve conditions for trade development, increase investment in infrastructure construction with countries along the Belt and Road, and adopt targeted strategies for different types of markets to develop market potential.

“…Ravishankar and Stack (2014) [11] used stochastic frontier analysis to measure the efficiency of trade exports between 17 Western European countries and 10 new members. Tamini (2016) [12] uses a stochastic frontier gravity model to analyze trade potential and trade efficiency between North African countries. However, few scholars use the stochastic frontier gravity model to analyze the trade potential and efficiency of trade in services between China and the Belt and Road countries.…”

Based on the construction of stochastic frontier gravity model, from 2008-2017, 14 the Belt and Road countries, its trade with China's service trade export potential and efficiency were studied. The empirical analysis results show that the GDP of partner countries, China's GDP, China's per capita GDP, bilateral distance have a significant impact on the volume of service trade. The average trade efficiency of China to the Belt and Road countries in 10 years is 0.4049, which is at a low level, and there are gaps among various countries. Finally, the paper puts forward corresponding suggestions for increasing the export potential of service trade and expanding the tradable space between China and the countries along the Belt and Road.
