“…Landline telephone connections, internet, electricity, and cell phone subscriptions can impact the economy and trade through decimation and flow of information among all the sectors. Ahmad et al (2011) measured and analyzed the extent of the effect of ICT infrastructure. He established that the use of ICT infrastructure, including Telephones, cellphones, and the internet, has a positive impact on the trade of Malaysia with the partners of trade.…”

We empirically determine the role of different forms of infrastructure on a country’s trade. We use an augmented gravity model that incorporates infrastructure in the estimation of merchandise trade flows. We take panel data, including China and 21 selected Asian economies, from 1999 to 2018. We find that the panel ordinary least squares (OLS) and poisson pseudo maximum likelihood (PPML) model estimations prove to be significant. Proxies for Transport Infrastructure including roads, railways, and sea transport, and Proxies for information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure consisting of mobile, electricity, and internet connections show a strong and positive impact on trade while air transport and landline phone connection have an unexpected negative effect on trade. The positive estimates for quality of infrastructure signify that high standards of Transport and ICT infrastructures lead to increased trade flows of the exporting and importing countries. Results also show that cultural similarity leads to increased trade flows between China and its trading partners in Asia.

This research, by using the autoregressive distributive lag method, examines the long- and short-term causal relationship between infrastructure and exports in Pakistan over the period 1990–2017. The empirical results revealed the existence of short- and long-term bi-directional causality concerning infrastructure and export in Pakistan. The results demonstrated that infrastructure strongly improves export in the short and long run. Conversely, export encourages the quality and availability of infrastructure in Pakistan in the long run. Furthermore, this study also uses sub-indices of infrastructure individually as dependent and independent variables. The study result demonstrated that the long- and short-term effects of infrastructure and its sub-indices (transport, electricity, communication, finance) on export is positive and significant. Also, when infrastructure sub-indices are used as dependent variables, the results indicate that the effect of export on sub-indices is positive and significant in the long run; however, in the short run, it is insignificant. The bi-directional linkage between infrastructure and export suggests that improving the quality and increasing the availability of infrastructure would enable Pakistan’s economy to catch up with the advanced economies, specifically in export. Furthermore, control variables of per-capita GDP, exchange rates, human capital, and domestic spending also expand the bi-directional causal relationship between Pakistan’s infrastructure and exports.

Bu çalışma Türkiye’nin lojistik performans indeksinin (LPI) mal ihracatı üzerindeki etkisini incelemektedir. Çalışmada Türkiye’nin en fazla ihracat yaptığı 20 ülkeye ve Türkiye’ye ait 2007, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016 ve 2018 yıllarına ait veriler kullanılmıştır. Veri ve örneklem yapısı belirlenirken, Dünya Bankası tarafından oluşturulan LPI ve Türkiye’nin en fazla ihracat yaptığı ülkelerle ilgili tüm yıllara ait verilerin bulunabilirliği göz önüne alınmıştır. Panel veri yapısına sahip olan modelde ülke etkisinin yapısı ve yatay kesit bağımlılığı göz önüne alındığında, tahmin yöntemi olarak uygulanabilir Genelleştirilmiş En Küçük Kareler Yöntemi (FGLS) kullanılmıştır. Tahmin sonuçlarından elde edilen bulgulara göre, Türkiye’nin LPI skorunun Türkiye’nin ihracatı üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ve pozitif bir etkisi bulunmaktadır. Türkiye’nin LPI skorunda ortaya çıkacak %1 oranındaki artış, ihracatını yaklaşık olarak %0.77 oranında artırmaktadır. Ayrıca, Türkiye’nin ihracat ortaklarının LPI skoru Türkiye’nin ihracatı üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etki göstermemektedir. Çalışma bulgularına göre, reel döviz kurunun ihracat üzerinde büyük bir etki gösterdiği sonucuna da ulaşılmıştır.
