ABSTRACT This study analyses the phenomenon of the high saving rate of China’s households from the perspective of bequest motives based on the data of China Household Finance Survey (CHFS). The result shows that, like Japan, the bequest motives of China’s households have a significant positive effect on the family saving rate, especially on rural household savings, middle-wealth and low-wealth households, those whose children work outside of the government system and those whose children with low education, indicating that the bequest motives of China’s households are more altruistic. This provides a new understanding of the high savings of households in China and can provide a reference for future policy making.
摘要本研究以中国家庭金融调查数据为基础,从遗赠动机的角度分析了中国家庭储蓄率高的现象。结果表明,与日本一样,中国家庭的遗赠动机对家庭储蓄率有显著的正向影响,尤其是对农村家庭储蓄、中等财富和低财富家庭、子女在政府系统之外工作的家庭和子女受教育程度低的家庭,这表明中国家庭的遗赠动机更加无私。这为我国家庭高储蓄提供了一个新的认识,可以为未来的政策制定提供参考。

ABSTRACT Time Series (TS) records transactions in a market at fixed intervals. Directional Change (DC) is an alternative way to record transactions: it only records transactions that represent significant price changes in the opposite direction in a trend, where ‘significance’ is observer-defined. In this paper, we argue that DC is particularly suitable for recording and analysing tick-to-tick data. Firstly, significant data points and high activities between sampling points that may not be recorded in a TS will always be recorded in DC. Secondly, as transactions take place at irregular times, but TS records transactions at fixed intervals, adjustments are required in the recording process, which may distort the records; no adjustments are required in DC. Thirdly, as DC is data-driven: every new transaction could potentially provide us with new information on the pulse of the market. For these reasons, DC is more suitable than TS for tracking tick-to-tick data for signals.
摘要时间序列(TS)以固定的时间间隔记录市场中的交易。方向变化(DC)是记录交易的另一种方式:它只记录代表趋势相反方向的重大价格变化的交易,其中“显著性”是观察者定义的。在本文中,我们认为DC特别适合记录和分析逐点数据。首先,可能未记录在TS中的重要数据点和采样点之间的高活动将始终记录在DC中。其次,由于交易发生在不规则的时间,但TS以固定的间隔记录交易,因此在记录过程中需要进行调整,这可能会扭曲记录;DC中不需要调整。第三,由于DC是数据驱动的:每一笔新交易都可能为我们提供有关市场脉搏的新信息。由于这些原因,DC比TS更适合跟踪信号的逐点数据。

ABSTRACT This paper investigates the interconnectedness between the GCC region, crude oil prices, and global equity markets of the US, Europe, and China. We use DCC-GARCH models and the Diebold and Yilmaz (2012) approach to examine the dynamic connectedness and the net directional flow of spillovers. Consistent with previous studies, we find that the US and European markets are net global contributors of return and volatility shocks, whilst the Chinese equity markets are gradually becoming influential. Meanwhile, the GCC equity markets have been anet recipient of shocks from oil prices. Our empirical results provide some important insights. Firstly, the net transmission of shocks from oil prices to the GCC markets has been reducing over time. Secondly, the total connectedness nearly doubled in response to the global pandemic. Thirdly, the Chinese stock markets are gradually transforming into net transmitters of spillovers to other global equity markets.
本文研究了海湾合作委员会地区、原油价格以及美国、欧洲和中国的全球股票市场之间的相互联系。我们使用DCC-GARCH模型和Diebold和Yilmaz(2012)的方法来检验动态连通性和溢出效应的净定向流动。与之前的研究一致,我们发现美国和欧洲市场是全球回报和波动冲击的净贡献者,而中国股市正逐渐变得有影响力。与此同时,海湾合作委员会的股票市场一直是油价冲击的净接受者。我们的实证结果提供了一些重要的见解。首先,随着时间的推移,油价冲击对海湾合作委员会市场的净传导一直在减少。其次,为应对全球大流行,互联互通总量几乎翻了一番。第三,中国股市正逐渐转变为全球其他股市溢出效应的净传播者。

ABSTRACT The three key actors in the current fight against the Coronavirus pandemic are as follows: (1) Leaders (political, scientific, industry, academic), (2) agents (public health departments, centres for disease control, educational and scientific institutions, multilateral organizations) and (3) followers (citizens, public, local community). All three need to be in sync to attain success, but the condition is fulfilled in only a very few countries mostly in Asia. Many political leaders were in denial about the pandemic and failed to provide any incentives to agents and followers to comply with public health rules and guidelines. A brief country review to test the above institutional framework offers several policy lessons for the future notably, need for global cooperation, greater role for government, strengthening of public health care and safety nets, and global sharing of Covid-19 data and vaccines, besides a change in human behaviour, working habits and lifestyles.
摘要当前抗击冠状病毒大流行的三个关键参与者如下:(1)领导人(政治、科学、工业、学术),(2)代理人(公共卫生部门、疾病控制中心、教育和科学机构、多边组织),以及(3)追随者(公民、公众、当地社区)。这三个国家都需要同步才能取得成功,但只有极少数国家(主要是亚洲国家)满足了这一条件。许多政治领导人否认疫情,也没有向代理人和追随者提供任何激励措施,让他们遵守公共卫生规则和指导方针。为测试上述体制框架而进行的简短国家审查为未来提供了几点政策教训,特别是全球合作的必要性、政府的更大作用、加强公共卫生保健和安全网、全球共享新冠肺炎数据和疫苗,以及人类行为、工作习惯和生活方式的改变。

ABSTRACT Based on a brief review of the existing literature on knowledge transfer between Chinese and Africans, this introductory essay sheds light on the purpose, methodologies, and main findings of this special issue. Aiming to investigate the impacts of Chinese FDI projects on technology learning in Africa, a team of SAIS-CARI researchers conducted field research in six African countries. To our knowledge, this is the first time such a comprehensive analysis on China-Africa knowledge transfer has been carried out. Our research finds that the majority of investments in agricultural and manufacturing comes from private small-to-medium sized companies that are driven by market factors and operate outside the Chinese government. The research suggests that Chinese investments in Africa have contributed to hiring and training local employees, demonstrated advanced technologies, and cooperated with local enterprises; however, the effectiveness and sustainability of the knowledge transfer varies across different sectors and countries.
在对中非知识转移的现有文献进行简要回顾的基础上,这篇介绍性文章阐明了本期专题研究的目的、方法和主要发现。为了调查中国外国直接投资项目对非洲技术学习的影响,一个由SAIS-CARI研究人员组成的团队在六个非洲国家进行了实地研究。据我们所知,这是首次对中非知识转移进行如此全面的分析。我们的研究发现,农业和制造业的大部分投资来自中小型私营企业,这些企业受市场因素驱动,在中国政府之外运作。研究表明,中国在非洲的投资有助于招聘和培训当地员工,展示先进技术,并与当地企业合作;然而,知识转移的有效性和可持续性在不同部门和国家之间存在差异。

ABSTRACT Based on merged custom import and export data and Chinese industrial enterprise data, this paper studies the influence of economic agglomeration incurred by urbanization in China on the products’ quality upgrading. We find that economic agglomeration can improve the product quality of Chinese enterprises. We further show that in the context of deepening trade liberalization, economic agglomeration leads enterprises to import more various intermediate products, thus helping to upgrade the quality of final products. The increase in the proportion of intermediate products imported from high-income countries will strengthen the role of economic agglomeration in upgrading the quality of products.
摘要本文基于海关进出口合并数据和中国工业企业数据,研究中国城市化引发的经济集聚对产品质量升级的影响。研究发现,经济集聚可以提高中国企业的产品质量。研究进一步表明,在贸易自由化不断深化的背景下,经济集聚导致企业进口更多种类的中间产品,从而有助于提升最终产品的质量。高收入国家中间产品进口比例的提高,将强化经济集聚对产品质量提升的作用。

ABSTRACT A low-carbon economy is not only vital to human survival but also to national energy security. The dual goals of carbon emission include those of a carbon peak and carbon neutrality, which are necessary for realizing new development patterns and promoting high-quality development in China. This study is focused on the innovation mechanism as applied to the dual goals of carbon emission, and two issues are considered – the overall carbon peak and carbon neutrality situation from resource tax and power reform perspective and the construction of a long-term mechanism to address environmental threats, such as smog. The continuous use of endogenous mechanisms to regulate the production and consumption behaviors of enterprises and people, as well as the means by which China may fully use its economic power to promote green, low-carbon, sustainable development are emphasized and analyzed.
低碳经济不仅关系到人类的生存,也关系到国家的能源安全。碳排放的双重目标包括碳峰值目标和碳中和目标,这是中国实现新发展模式、推动高质量发展的必然要求。本研究着眼于碳排放双重目标下的创新机制,从资源税和电力改革的角度考虑整体碳峰值和碳中和情况,以及构建应对雾霾等环境威胁的长效机制。强调并分析了持续利用内生机制调节企业和民众的生产和消费行为,以及中国如何充分利用经济力量促进绿色、低碳、可持续发展的途径。

Chinese investment in East Africa: History, status, and impacts 中国在东非的投资:历史、现状和影响

ABSTRACT This paper investigates the development trajectory of Chinese investments in two East African countries and their implications for technology transfer. It traces the transformation of Chinese economic engagements with Africa since the early independence era. Most Chinese investments were established in the past decade, except for a few aid-driven investments created in the 1970s and those made by the first wave of Chinese expatriate entrepreneurs to East Africa in the 1990s. These recent investments have concentrated in construction-related industries, export-oriented garments industry, plastic recycling and reprocessing, and agro-business. In terms of technology transfer, there are local training efforts and signs for intra-industry spillovers. Large-scale Chinese investments or development projects have established formal training programs with explicit localization targets and are more likely to collaborate with government agencies or vocational training institutes. Moreover, horizontal and vertical spillovers have also taken the form of the development of sub-contracting, local supply, distribution networks, and imitation by local firms. Nevertheless, those industry-level spillovers are less systematic due to the limitations of local investors’ financial and technological capacity.
本文研究了中国在两个东非国家投资的发展轨迹及其对技术转让的影响。它追溯了自独立初期以来中国与非洲经济交往的转变。大多数中国投资都是在过去十年中建立的,除了20世纪70年代创建的少数援助驱动型投资和20世纪90年代第一波中国海外企业家到东非进行的投资。这些最近的投资集中在建筑相关行业、出口导向型服装行业、塑料回收和再加工以及农业企业。在技术转让方面,有地方培训的努力和行业内溢出的迹象。中国的大规模投资或发展项目已经建立了具有明确本地化目标的正式培训计划,并且更有可能与政府机构或职业培训机构合作。此外,横向和纵向溢出还表现为分包、当地供应、分销网络的发展以及当地企业的模仿。然而,由于当地投资者的金融和技术能力的限制,这些行业层面的溢出效应不太系统。

ABSTRACT In this study, we investigate whether the measures to improve corporate governance of financial institutions promoted by the Chinese authorities in 2013 have contributed to the positive growth of the values of institutional investments in firms. Given the regulatory changes about financial institutions in 2013, we hypothesise that the improvement of corporate governance of financial institutions has a spillover effect and increases the performance of the companies that the institutions invest in. Our results are robust in supporting the hypothesis, even after we address for reverse causality issue. In particular, we verify that the spillover of governance, arising from the improvement of corporate governance in financial institutions, can strengthen the positive association between institutional ownership and firm value.
摘要本文探讨了2013年中国政府推动的金融机构公司治理改善措施是否促进了机构投资价值的正增长。鉴于2013年金融机构的监管变化,我们假设金融机构公司治理的改善具有溢出效应,并提高了机构所投资公司的绩效。我们的结果有力地支持了这一假设,即使在我们解决了反向因果关系问题之后。特别是,我们验证了由于金融机构公司治理的改善而产生的治理溢出可以增强机构所有权与公司价值之间的正相关关系。

ABSTRACT In its history, Chinese culture has experienced three big waves of developments. The first one was in the Warring State Period, instigated by a large number of philosophers who laid the foundations of Chinese culture. The second was the introduction of Buddhism and its final integration with Confucianism and Daoism in Southern Song dynasty (1127–1279). The third was represented by the introduction of science and social beliefs from the West (from 1840 onwards). This paper focuses on the cultural changes since 1840, from the Opium war to COVID-19 expands three Gengzi cycles. During the past 180 years, China has experienced one the most turbulent eras of its history, associated with immense culture changes. . In the recent 60 years, China has focused on economic development. The fast economic development and their response to COVID-19 have demonstrated that a system with Chinese characteristics will become the de facto system for China.
摘要中国文化在其发展史上经历了三次大的发展浪潮。第一次是在战国时期,在一大批哲学家的鼓动下,奠定了中国文化的基础。二是佛教的传入,并在南宋(1127-1279)与儒道思想最终融合。第三个代表是从西方引进科学和社会信仰(从1840年起)。本文着重研究1840年以来的文化变迁,从鸦片战争到新冠肺炎,扩展了三个庚子周期。在过去的180年里,中国经历了其历史上最动荡的时代之一,伴随着巨大的文化变化。近60年来,中国一直把重点放在经济发展上。经济的快速发展及其对新冠肺炎的应对表明,中国特色的制度将成为中国事实上的制度。
