国贸与外贸的区别

国贸与外贸的区别

国贸与外贸的区别国贸:国际贸易,外贸:对外贸易。

国际贸易是从整个世界的范围来说,对外贸易是从某个国家的角度来说。

但是在国内,说到这两个词,给人的感觉概念上差不多,因为我们都是从我们中国的角度来说的。

楼上的朋友有一点说得不对,出口中国的产品到国外去只是国贸或外贸的一小部分内容,国贸或外贸不止包括产品的进出口(不仅是出口而已)(或叫有形贸易),还包括无形贸易,比如技术进出口、服务贸易等。

对一个做国际贸易的新手来说,首先他本身要具备从事国际贸易所需要的素质,我认为最重要的有以下几点:1、英语水平,特别是书面的和口头的商务英语的水平,要能很好地以这两种方式跟客户很好地沟通;2、外贸业务知识,从与客户的业务谈判、接单、安排生产到安排出货、联系货代、联系相关外贸代理公司、联系银行、安排结汇,以及这期间若出现什么问题,如何跟客户、工厂及有关各方联系解决,等等;3、以上两种技能毕竟是可以在工作实践中慢慢学习的,还不是最重要的。

做一个优秀的外贸业务员最重要的素质是认真严谨负责的工作态度。

国际贸易是那种稍有疏忽就“一失足成千古恨”的行业,容不得半点马虎。

另外,就是要“知己知彼,百战百胜”。

“知己”是:一、要对公司情况、工厂情况、产品情况等要有相当的了解;二、对公司业务操作流程、工厂业务操作流程、产品生产流程等要有相当的了解。

“知彼”是:一、对客户的定货价位、定货特点、对货物的具体要求,习惯的贸易方式、付款方式、运输方式等都要有相当的了解;二、对客户本人的脾气、爱好、习惯等要有相当的了解。

具体措施:一、下到工厂车间第一线去,亲身去参与产品生产,和普通工人交朋友,不耻下问,以熟悉产品、了解生产流程及质量检验的具体要求,并且呆的时间越长越好;二、尽可能多地翻阅公司之前的资料档案,最好做必要的笔记,以了解业务流程及老客户的定货价位、定货特点、对货物的具体要求,习惯的贸易方式、付款方式、运输方式等,还有老业务员对待客户要求的方法及措施,还有函电回复的方式;三、业务上多向老业务员请教,特别是在展会上,学习他们的谈判技巧及他们对待不同客人的不同方法。

Oil price fluctuations and their impact on the macroeconomic variables of Kuwait:a case study using a V AR modelSUMMARYIn this study,a vector auto regression model (V AR) and a vector error correction model (VECM) were estimated to examine the impact of oil price fluctuations on seven key macroeconomic variables for the Kuwaiti economy. Quarterly data for the period 1984 - 1998 were utilized. Theoretically and empirically speaking,VECM is superior to the V AR approach. Also,the results corresponding to the VECM model are closer to common sense.However,the estimated models indicate a high degree of interrelation between major macroeconomic variables. The empirical results highlight the causality running from the oil prices and oil revenues,to government development and current expenditure and then towards other variables. For the most part,the empirical evidence indicates that oil price shocks and hence oil revenues have a notable impact on government expenditure,both development and current. However,government development expenditure has been influenced relatively more.The results also point out the significance of the CPI in explaining a notable part of the variations of both types of government expenditure. On the other hand,the variations in value of imports are mostlyaccounted for by oil revenue fluctuations and then by the fluctuation in government development expenditures. Also,the results from the VECM approach indicate that a significant part of LM2 variance is explained by the variance in oil revenue. It reaches about 46 percent in the 10th quarter,even more than its own variations.KEY WORDS:vector auto regression (V AR); oil fluctuation; Kuwait1. INTRODUCTIONThe post-1973 effects of the oil boom on the economies of Arab oil producing countries have been diverse,though on balance,many of those governments might look back on the period 1973 –1986 as a mixed blessing. Income on the oil account certainly rose rapidly,but so did price inflation,wage rates and reliance on foreign labor. Above all,the growth of the oil sector as a contributor to national income tended to reduce the role of nonoil sectors to insignificance in most Arab states of the Gulf. This phenomenon has been termed in the literature ‘the Dutch Disease ’ . Dramatic ris es in per capita income were the fruits of rising oil revenues alone,even in the case of the larger more diversified economies of the Gulf such as Iran (Al-Abbasi,1991).There is a great deal of theoretical and empirical literature scrutinizing various aspects of the Dutch Disease economies such as Cordon and Neary (1982),Hamilton (1983),Neary and van Wijnbergen (1986),Fardmanesh (1991),Van Wijnbergen (1984),Gelb and Associates (1988) and Taylor et al. (1986) to name a few. Recently,several empirical studies have been published on Arab oil producing countries. For instance,Taher (1987) studied the impacts of changes in the world oil prices on the different sectors of the Saudi economy. Furthermore,Al-Mutawa (1991) and Al-Mutawa and Cuddington (1994) analysed the effects of oil shocks and macroeconomic policy changes for the UAE. The results showed that,in the case of UAE,an oil-quantity boom led to higher welfare gains than an oil-price boom. Moreover,an oil-price or quantity bust always led to lower economic growth and created a welfare loss. Also,Al-Mutairi (1993) attempted to identify the sources of output fluctuations and the dynamic response of the economy to changes in key macroeconomic variables for Kuwait. His empirical results suggested that for short horizons of one and two years,shocks to the oil price account for more than 50 per cent of the variance of GDP. However,at longer horizons of three years and more,these shocks are seen to be unimportant in inducing GDP fluctuations,accounting only for less than 10 per cent of the variance. Shocks of real-government expenditure were also found to have a significant role in causing GDP fluctuations.Kuwait is a typical example of an oil-based economy. The oil sector contributes over two-thirds of GDP and over 90 per cent of exports. Although Kuwait tries hard to lessen its dependence on oil through the development of a non-oil sector,its success has so far been,at the best,very modest. The real problem is that oil prices and hence oilrevenues are exogenously determined. As a member of OPEC,Kuwait has no control over the price of its crude oil and at least theoretically speaking cannot exceed its assigned production quota. The objectives of this study are to investigate the impacts of oil price fluctuations on key macroeconomic variables of the Kuwaiti economy,to examine the direction of causality and to determine the significance of such impacts. This will certainly enhance our understanding of how international oil price fluctuations impact key macroeconomic variables and the dynamic response of these economic variables,including policy variables such as government expenditure and money supply.In this study,the analysis is carried out using two different models,namely,the vector autoregres-sion model (V AR) and the vector error correction model (VECM). The V AR technique is appropriate in this case because of its ability to characterize the dynamic structure of the model as well as its ability to avoid imposing excessive identifying restrictions associated with different economic theories. The use of V AR in macroeconomics has generated much empirical evidence,giving fundamental support to many economic theories (see Blanchard and Watson,1984,Bernanke,1986 among others).In the next section,a brief review of the literature is presented followed by the V AR model along with the data utilized. The empirical results and their interpretation are given in section four,followed by the conclusions.2. THE MODEL2.1. The background of V AR methodologyThe V AR system is based on empirical regularities embedded in the data. The V AR model may be viewed as a system of reduced form equations in which each of the endogenous variables is regressed on its own lagged values and the lagged values of all other variables in the system. An n variable V AR system can be written asA(l)Y t=A+U t(1)A(l)=l-A1l-A2l2-A m l m(2)where Y t is an n × 1 vector of macroeconomic variables,A is an n ×1 vector of constraints,and U t is an n ×1 vector of random variables,each of which is serially uncorrelated with constant variance and zero mean. Equation(2) is an n × n matrix of normalized polynomials in the lag operator l with the first entry of each polynomial on A ' s being unity.Since the error terms (U t) in the above model are serially uncorrelated,an ordinary-least-squares (OLS) technique would be appropriate to estimate this model. However,before estimating the parameters of the model A(l) meaningfully,one must limit the length of the lag in the polynomials. If l is the lag length,the number of coefficients to be estimated is n(nl +c),where c is the number of constants.In the V AR model above,the current innovations (U t) are unanticipated but become part of the information set in the next period.This implies that the anticipated impact of a variable is captured in the coefficients of lagged polynomials while the residuals capture unforeseen contem-poraneous events. Therefore,an important feature of the V AR methodology is the use of the estimated residuals,called V AR innovations,in dynamic analysis. Unlike in conventional economic modelling,these V AR innovations are treated as an inherent part of the system.In order to analyse the impact of unanticipated policy shocks on the macroeconomic variables in a more convenient and comprehensive way,Sims (1980) proposed the use of impulse response functions (IRFs) and forecast error variance decompositions (FEVDs). IRFs and FEVDs are obtained from a moving average representation of the V AR model [Equations (1) and (2)] as shown belowY t=Constant+H t(l)U (3)AndH(l)=I+H t l+H2l (4)Where H is the coefficient matrix of the moving average representation which can be obtained by successive substitution in Equations (1) and (2). The elements of the H matrix trace the response over time of a variable i due to a unit shock given to variable j. In fact,these impulse response functions will provide the means to analyse the dynamic behaviour of the macroeconomic variables due to unanticipated shocks in the exogenous variables.Having derived the variance-covariance matrix from the moving-average representation,the FEVDs can be constructed.FEVDs represent the decomposition of forecast error variances and therefore give estimates of the contributions of distinct innovations to the variances. Thus,they can be interpreted as showing the portion of variance in the prediction for each variable in the system that is attributable to its own innovations and to shocks to other variables in the system.2.2. Vector error correction methodology Dickey and Fuller (1979) have emphasized the necessity of analysing the time-series properties of the variables before their relationship can be established. This is necessary because if the variables in question are nonstationary,then the estimated equations will yield spurious and misleading regression results. If the variables in a relationship are stationary then it is generally true that any linear combination of these variables is said to be cointegrated. Johansen’s test (1991,1995) is commonly used to test for cointegration between more than two time series. It also provides estimates of the possible long-term relationships,i.e. the parameters of the relationships that ensure cointegration. In this study,a vector error correction model (VECM) was also estimated.The VECM is basically a V AR system that builds on Johansen ' s test for cointegration and is usually referred to in the literatures as the restricted V AR.2.3. The estimated model and dataThe first step in estimating a V AR model is to make a choice of the macroeconomic variables that are essential for the analysis. Thevariables consist of one external shock measured by innovations in the price of Kuwaiti blend crude oil,three key macroeconomic variables,oil revenues,the consumer price index,(CPI) and the value of imports and three policy variables,Money Supply M2,government current expenditure and government development expenditure. The notations of these variables are as follow:OILP = Oil Price of Kuwaiti Blend CrudeOILR= Oil RevenueEXDEV = Government Development ExpenditureEXCON =Government Current ExpenditureCPI = Consumer Price IndexM2 =Money Demand (M2 Definition)IMPORTS = Value of Imports of Goods & ServicesQuarterly data for the period 1984:1-1998:4 were utilized in this study. The data for the period of the Iraqi occupation and the liberation of Kuwait were removed from the time series for obvious reasons (1990-1991). All data are from the Quarterly Monetary Statistics of the Central Bank of Kuwait and OPEC’s Monthly Bulletin. Similar to the previous studies,all the variables are expressed in logarithmic form. This can be partially justified by the fact that logarithmic forms tend to reduce the scale of the variables,which is a desirable quality when analysing the time-series properties of the variables before their relationship can be established. It is also a useful tool in providing estimates of the possible long-term relationships,i.e. the parameters of the relationships that ensure co-integration.A very important point that should be mentioned here is that the major shortcoming of the V AR approach is its lack of theoretical substance (Cooly and LeRoy,1985; Leamer,1985). In response to this criticism,Blanchard and Watson (1984) and Bernanke (1986) developed procedures,called the structural vector autoregression (SV AR) approach,which combines the features of the traditional structural modelling with those of the V AR methodology. The major advantage of using SV AR comes from the fact that standard V AR disturbances are generally characterized by contemporaneous correlations. In the presence of such correlations,the response of the system,indicated by IRFs,to an innovation in one of the variables is in fact the response to innovations in all those variables that are contemporaneously correlated with it. Similarly,the ability of FEVDs to quantify the relative contributions of specific sources of variation is confounded in the presence of this correlation. However,in standard V AR methodology this contemporaneous correlation is purged by the Cholesky orthogonalization procedure. For the most part,the Cholesky procedure implicitly assumes recursivity in the V AR model as it is estimated. Although theoretical considerations may help in determining this ordering and ex-post sensitivity analysis may further help provide insights regarding appropriate ordering,it remains largely at the discretion of the modeller.The following ordering of equations was adopted in this study; LOILP,LOILR,LEXEDEV,LEXCON,LCPI,LM2 andLIMPORTS. Generally speaking,this ordering reflects the fact that oil prices have an influence on oil revenues and then on all the other variables in the model. However,the behavior of oil prices and to some extent oil revenue are the least determined by other variables included in the model. This is quite a plausible assumption because the oil prices and hence oil revenues which consist of oil export revenues and net factor income from abroad are largely determined by the world market conditions rather than within the Kuwaiti Economy. Similarly,this ordering assumes that the government expenditure is largely determined by the level of oil revenues which again is quite a plausible assumption considering the dominant role of the public sector in driving the Kuwaiti economy. It is also sensible to assume that the value of imports is largely dependent on the level of government expenditure.Since the only variables included are those suggested by economic theory,and since theoretical considerations are important in selecting the ordering used here,the SV AR is not followed in this study. Nevertheless,the approach utilized here can be considered to be in the spirit of the SV AR approach.3. THE EMPIRICAL RESULTSFirst,the V AR technique requires stationary data,thus each series should be examined for stationarity. Table I gives the nonstationary test for all the time-series,using the conventional Dicky-Fuller test (DF),its augmented version (ADF) and Phillips-Parron t-tests. Thesetests include a constant but no time trend,as recommended by Dickey and Fuller (1979).First,the reported t-statistics,when compared with the critical values obtained by Engle and Yoo (1987),indicate that almost all the series,except CPI,M2 and IMPORTS,are stationary in the levels as shown by the DF,ADF and Phillips-Perron t-tests. These tests are reapplied after differencing all terms. The t-statistics on the lagged first-difference terms indicate that,for all series the null hypothesis is rejected,that is to say,all series are first differences stationary. However,in transforming a variable,a usual question arises as to whether one should use the variables in the system in levels or in differences. The overall guideline is that if there are k number of cointegrating vector among the variables used in the system,then V AR could be modelled with k stationary and n-k differences of original variables. But if all the variables in the system are nonstationary,using a V AR in levels is appropriate. On the other hand,estimating a V AR in the levels in the case of cointegration may lead to the omission of important constraints.In this context,Doan et al. (1984) noted that differencing a variable is ‘important ' in the case of Box-Jenkins ARIMA Modelling. Doan et al. also observed that it is not desirable to do so in V AR models. Fuller (1976) has also shown that differencing the data may not produce any gain so far as the ‘asymptotic efficiency’of the V AR is concerned ‘even if it is appropriate’.Moreover,Fuller has argued that differencing a variable ‘ throws information away ' while producing nosignificant gain. Thus,following Doan and Fuller’s argument,the level rather than the difference was utilized here.Second,the estimation of a V AR model requires the explicit choice of lag length in the equations of the model. Following Judge et al. (1988) and McMillin (1988),Akaike’s AIC criterion is used to determine the lag length of the V AR model. The chosen lag length is one that minimizes the following:AIC(n)=Indet∑+(2d2n)/Twhere d is the number of variables in the model,T the sample size and∑n an estimate of the residuals’variance-covariance matrix ∑n obtained with a V AR (n). The maximum lag length is set at five quarters,considering the sample size and number of variables in the model. A maximum lag of greater than five quarters would reduce the degrees of freedom for estimation unacceptably. The result of employing this technique is summarized in Table II,which shows the corresponding AIC values. It can be seen that the AIC criterion is minimized for order 4. This suggests that,for this study,the V AR model should be of order 4.The next step is to estimate the V AR. The estimates along with their t-values are reported in Table III. Although the estimates of individual coefficients in V AR do not have a straightforward interpretation,a glance at the table generally shows that most of the t-values are significant (except for the CPI equation) and almost all of the equations have high R-squares. It also confirms the assertion that oil prices are exogenously determined than other variables included in themodel. However,oil revenue equation has a larger number of significant t-values than current expenditure and CPI.3.1. Variance decompositionTable IV presents the variance decomposition for the 10-quarters forecasts. Table IV shows that initially the variations in all of the variables are typically explained by the variables’ own trends. That is to say,at the beginning,the historical trend of each variable explains a large part of its own variations. For the most part,after ten quarters,about 60 per cent of the variance in oil prices is explained by the variable itself which is indicative of its exogenous nature. On the other hand,oil revenue explained about 93 per cent of its own variations at the first quarter and about 20 percent at the 10th quarter. Moreover,variation in oil prices account for about 45 per cent of the variation in oil revenues starting at the second quarter and through to the tenth. This shows that the causality is running from oil prices to oil revenues. Similar results are also evident for government development and current expenditures. Over a time period,about 15-17 per cent of the variance in government expenditures (development and current) is accounted for by the variations in the oil revenues.Furthermore,looking at the variance decomposition in the government expenditures (development and current) it is observed that following their own variations and oil revenues,the LCPI account for a notable part of the expenditures’ variance. The CPI accounts for onefifth of the current expenditure variations and about 15 per cent of the development expenditure. This is quite a plausible result and very apparent in the case of current expenditure.On the other hand,it is worth noting that the other variable that also picks up a significant part of the variations in government development expenditure is the value of imports. It accounts for about 16 per cent.Looking at the variance decomposition of M2,it is apparent that a noticeable part of its variance is explained by the variance in the CPI (about 33 per cent),even more than its own variations. Also,oil prices and oil revenue,respectively,account for about 23 and 13 per cent of its variations. These results suggest an important role for money supply.Moreover,over the time period,the results show that 25-45 per cent of the variance in the value of imports is accounted for by the variation in oil revenues alone. Other variables included in the model that exert significant influence on the behaviour of imports are the two types of government expenditure but in particular,the development expenditure.3.2. Impulse responsesFigure 1 displays the Impulse Response Functions,which are essentially the dynamic multipliers .Since the primary interest is to see the response of major macroeconomic variables to the shocks given to the oil revenues and then to the government expenditure,only tentime periods are reported. An inspection of Figure 1 reveals that innovation in the oil prices and hence oil revenue has a similar effect on most of the variables in the model. Generally,most of these variables show an increase in the first quarter. This increase continues in the second and third quarter and then it gradually tapers off over the successive quarters. The only exceptions are the CPI and the value of imports and M2. This may be attributable to the shortcomings in the data set used to estimate the V AR. Recall that LCPI,LM2 and LIMPORTS were found to be non-stationary in the level.3.3. Estimation of the vector error correction model Since most of the variables included in the model pertain to stationary time series data except LCPI,LM2 and LIMPORTS,Johansen’s test (1991,1995) was applied to check for cointegrating vectors. The test indicated that there are four cointegrating vectors. Therefore,a vector error correction model is warranted. A vector error correction model is a V AR that build-in cointegration. Each co-integrating equation adds the parameters associated with the term involving levels of the series which needs to be added to each equation in the V AR. There is a sequence of nested models in this framework. The Johansen test procedure computes the likelihood ratio for each added co-integrating equation.On the basis of Johansen’s test,a Vector error correction model (VECM) was estimated. Four co-integrating equations were estimated using the same seven variables that were used in the V AR. However,since the results of estimating the VECM do not have a direct interpretation,they are not reported here.3.4. Variance decompositionThe variance decomposition results corresponding to the estimated VECM are presented in Table V. They are based on the same ordering as was used in the V AR. Comparing these results with the V AR shows that while the qualitative nature of macroeconomic linkages remains almost the same,the intensity of interaction between the variables is significantly higher when co-integration has been accounted for. For example,looking at the variance decomposition of the oil revenues,it shows that variables like government development and current expenditures have a substantially larger share when compared with the V AR results which increased from 14 per cent to about 40 percent. Similarly,the oil revenue has picked up a relatively larger proportion of the variation in the government current expenditure as well as the value of imports,especially during the first 4-6 quarters. However,the results indicate that variations in LCPI,LM2 and LIMPORTS,after 7-10 quarters,are mainly explained by changes in oil revenue alone.In particular,the variance decomposition of LM2 indicates that a significant part of its variance is explained by the variations in oil revenues (about 46 per cent after 10 quarters),even more than its own variations. On the other hand,contrary to the result from V AR,LCPI accounts for only 7 per cent.Empirically speaking,the VECM model shows a relatively higher degree of statistical significance. Theoretically speaking,this is because it yields a closer interaction between macroeconomic variables than what the V AR indicated.3.5. Impulse response functionsFigure 2 displays the impulse response functions corresponding to the VECM model. Figure 2 indicates that innovations in the oil prices and oil revenue have a similar impact on the variables included in the model. However,similar to the V AR,most of the variables show an increase for the first few quarters then it gradually tapers off over the successive quarters with the exception of CPI,value of imports and LM2.Comparing these IRFs with those corresponding to the V AR version reveals that it takes a little longer for the multipliers in the VECM version to reach the level of the V AR version. While they generally reached their peak in the V AR version in about 6-7 quarters,it took them 8-9 quarters to reach almost the same level in the VECM version.4. CONCLUSIONS AND SOME POLICYIMPLICATIONSThe primary goal of this paper was to investigate how macroeconomic variables react to fluctuations in the world oil prices. Therefore,two different versions have been estimated,namely,the V AR and the VECM. While the qualitative nature of macroeconomiclinkages remains almost the same in the two models,the intensity of interaction between the variables is significantly higher when cointegration has been accounted for. Thus,quantitatively the two models give results that are significantly different from each other. However,empirically,the VECM gives better results because it yields a closer interaction between macroeconomic variables than by the V AR estimation. The results corresponding to the VECM are also closer to common sense.Nevertheless,the two versions estimated indicated a notable degree of interrelation between the major macroeconomic variables. The results have highlighted the causality running from oil prices towards oil revenues and then towards government expenditure and other variables. However,further assessment of the relationship between these variables,based on orthogonal innovations,lead us to believe that oil price shocks do impact macroeconomic variables in Kuwait and in particular,via government development and current expenditures.The evaluation of the decomposition of the variance of government expenditures suggests that oil revenue fluctuations account for a notable part especially in the case of development expenditure.This result is not surprising and is actually consistent with what is expected in a country in which the government is the sole owner of the main national income source,the oil and gas industry. Thus,government expenditure becomes the major determinant of the level of economic activity and the mechanism by which the government caneffect the circular flow of income within the economy.What is surprising,however,is that one would expect the impact of oil shocks to be much stronger and in particular,in the case of current government expenditure. However,this may be explained by the fact that over the last three decades,the government has accumulated capital reserve (surplus) which is regularly used to finance current government commitments,especially in times of low oil revenue.Moreover,the results also point out the significance of the CPI in explaining a notable part of the variations of both types of government expenditure. On the other hand,the variations in value of imports are mostly accounted for by oil revenue fluctuations and then by the fluctuation in government development expenditures. These results suggest that fiscal policy appears to be effective in Kuwait as the oil shocks impact government expenditure and then government expenditure accounts for a relatively considerable part of the CPI and the value of import variations.However,the results from VECM approach indicate that a significant part of LM2 variance is explained by the variance in oil revenue.
