中文摘要:自加入WTO以来，中国企业以低成本的竞争优势在国际市场中抢占了大量的市场份额，在2009年，中国更是首次超过了德国，成为了世界上最大的贸易出口国。现在，“中国制造”已经成为全世界范围家喻户晓的品牌，但国外消费者对中国产品的印象还停留在低价格、低质量这一层次。正是由于一些企业的不诚信行为，将大量劣质的中国产品出口到国外，以次充好，严重影响了我国产品的信誉。欧盟、美国等国家更是以此为理由，设置重重限制和阻碍。
诚信，作为外贸企业的无形资产，对企业竞争力的形成，外贸业务的扩展，品牌的建立起着至关重要的作用。我们应借鉴发达国家的诚信理念和相关制度，充实完善我国外贸企业的诚信体系。
本文着重研究了诚信、声誉、管理和经济效益之间的关系，结合当前全球金融危机和我国经济转型的现状，明确了诚信经商的必要性，提出了应对挑战的方法。
