China’s OBOR Initiative and its Implication to Australia Economy
Abstract
China’s
One
Belt
One
Road
initiative
has
received
much
attention
since
2015.
The
primary
objective
is
to
investigate
the
impact
of
One
Belt
One
Road
(OBOR)
initiative
on
the
Australia
economy,
in
particular
to
mining
industry
in
Australia.
Empirical
findings
show
that
macroeconomic
indicators
in
China
have
significant
impact
on
the
iron
ore
price
movement,
and
consequently,
the
economic
conditions
in
Australia
is
affected
by
the
iron
ore
price.
These
results
imply
that
Australia
economy
will
be
greatly
benefited
by
the
OBOR
initiative
proposed
by
the
Chinese
government.
