Abstract:
This paper calculates the anti-dumping investigations index and the anti-dumping definitive measures index against China’s steel products by horizontal and vertical comparison. Using the formula of antidumping intensity index,the paper also calculated the anti-dumping intensity index and its influence suffered form the main originating countries or regions. Finally,using the econometrical model,the relationship among the anti-dumping behavior and the balance of trade and import proportion has been analyzed. The findings show: during 1999~2009,the number of anti-dumping against China’s steel products ranks No.1,but the anti-dumping investigations index and the anti-dumping definitive measures index are rank No.3,after India and South Korea,indicating that the affection by foreign AD actions on Chinese steel exports are turned from slightly to badly. Main originating countries or regions are U.S.A,Canada and Mexico,etc. Expand of the trade deficit of China’s steel exports and the proportion of steel products imported from China was strongly affected by anti-dumping activities.
