Abstract

With the rapid development and extensive penetration of the Internet, cross-border e-commerce has shown vigorous vitality, continuously deepening the international division of labor, changing transaction methods, and reshaping the trade pattern, playing an increasingly important role in the global trade system. The rapid development of cross-border e-commerce has put forward higher requirements for cross-border logistics services. Due to the international nature of the cross-border logistics environment and the complexity of the process, small and medium-sized enterprises often entrust logistics to third-party logistics companies in engaging in cross-border e-commerce activities to reduce logistics costs, improve logistics service quality and enhance logistics core competitiveness. However, the practice has proved that while third-party logistics bring benefits to enterprises, it will also bring financial and information risks to enterprises, which will affect the development of enterprises and become one of the bottlenecks in the development of cross-border e-commerce.
