Abstract

This paper studies the influential relationship between Chinese opening up and economic growth quality in China under exchange rate fluctuation from 1994 to 2018. There is a long-term stable co-integration relationship between opening-up and the quality of economic growth. Trade openness can significantly promote the quality of economic growth in both the short and long term. When the short-term fluctuation deviated from the long-term equilibrium, the quality of economic growth can remain stable through automatic adjustment. The positive impact of trade openness on quality of economic growth had a significant regional heterogeneity and non-linear threshold characteristics.
