Abstract

This study examines how data factor allocation promotes cross-border e-commerce development in China. Based on provincial panel data (2012–2022), we employ a two-way fixed effects model to analyze this relationship. Results show that enhancing data factor allocation significantly boosts cross-border e-commerce, a finding robust to alternative measures, lagged variables, and winsorization. The promotion operates through two indirect channels: industrial structure upgrading and increased R&D intensity. Heterogeneity analyses reveal stronger effects in regions with higher data allocation levels and a regional gradient (Eastern > Western > Northeastern > Central). The findings underscore data factors as a key driver for high-quality e-commerce growth and offer targeted policy implications.
