摘要:This paper exploits the transaction-level data of a leading U.S. online marketplace capturing cross-border E-commerce trades. We find that the exchange rate pass-through into the online U.S. import prices is large and a maximum pass-through of 70% can be achieved within 6 months on average. Our findings contrast with the existing evidence using the traditional customs data suggesting limited pass-through. We rationalize these facts by introducing search frictions and endogenous customer base in a heterogenous firm model to generate variable markups for goods pricing. Our model highlights the channel that large churning and reshuffling of buyers and sellers in the online market makes firms unlikely to build up customer relationships. With trivial market shares and limited customer base, online goods prices exhibit larger sensitivities to cost shocks driven by exchange rate changes. Our results suggest that the U.S. dollar prices become increasingly sensitive to exchange rate fluctuations as more trades would be settled over the online borders.
