Export Performance and Export-Import Linkage Requirements
分析发展中国家为改善贸易平衡而采用的出口绩效和进出口挂钩政策对资源配置的影响，发现除非配合最终产品进口壁垒，否则这两种政策可能反而恶化贸易平衡。
This paper examines the resource allocation effects of two policies widely employed by developing countries to improve their trade balances. Compared to free-trade, both export performance and export-import linkage policies may actually worsen the balance of trade unless they are coupled with an import barrier on final goods. Even with such barriers, an export-import linkage policy still may not cause the trade balance to improve. The effects of both policies on a number of domestic variables are discussed. Profit and output of domestic exporters can increase under trade performance policies.
