Abstract

This study empirically examines the association between the digital economy and export resilience and its underlying mechanisms using data from A-share listed companies and prefecture-level cities from 2011 to 2024. The results indicate that digital economy development is associated with enhanced corporate export resilience, reflected in improved risk resistance and recovery capabilities. Resource allocation efficiency serves as a partial mediator, with digital technologies indirectly strengthening export resilience by optimizing resource distribution and reinforcing production processes and supply chain management. Heterogeneity analysis shows that this positive association is strongest in the eastern region, followed by the western region, and is not significant in the central region. Small and medium-sized enterprises exhibit a stronger positive association than large enterprises.
