Processing vs. Ordinary Trade

Abstract

This briefing outlines research which looks at Chinese trade policy waiving import duties on foreign materials used for re-exporting. Processing firms choose either to source foreign parts and export on their own (import-and-assembly) or to process inputs directly provided by a foreign buyer at no cost (pure assembly).
