The chief economist of CITIC Securities, Ming Ming, has stated that accelerating digital and green transformation within businesses can help cultivate new growth points for foreign trade and optimize the structure of foreign trade. Ming Ming believes that digitalization in trade can reduce the cost of exports, including transportation and logistics costs, communication costs, information exchange costs, and cross-border payment costs. The development of trade digitalization has also prolonged the global value chain. Greening trade can promote upgrades in the structure of foreign trade and reduce the impact of trade barriers and dependence on imported energy. In the future, Ming Ming anticipates that as businesses accelerate digital and green transformation, there will be even greater space for growth in China's foreign trade. To encourage digitalization, foreign trade enterprises should actively use and promote digital intelligent technologies to improve traditional foreign trade digitalization levels. To promote greening trade, international regional cooperation should be strengthened, low-carbon reduction mechanisms should be improved, low-carbon research and development innovation should be strengthened, and carbon reduction technology applications should be enhanced.
