摘要：
The construction of infrastructure facilities has become the initial project of China's Belt and Road Initiative. By using export and import data between China and its Belt and Road partners for the period 2001-2012, this paper estimates an augmented gravity model that specifically includes infrastructure indicators as explanatory variables to examine their potential impacts on trade flows. The findings show that infrastructure facilities are positively related to trade flows between China and its Belt and Road partners. This finding is statistically more significant for exports to China than imports from China.
