Abstract

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to propose strategies of improving efficiency of 20 listed port companies in China based on analysis of their input-output indexes from 2014 to 2018. Research design, data, and methodology – In this paper, the relevant input-output indicators of 20 listed port companies in China from 2014 to 2018 were adopted. Comprehensive efficiency and pure technical efficiency were measured from output perspective by DEA and Malmquist index, and efficiency changes and regional efficiency were analyzed. Result – The results showed that the efficiency value of 20 listed port companies in China fluctuated and increased during 2014-2018, regional efficiency is unbalanced, and change of MPI is influenced by internal factors and external factors. Conclusion – The research conclusion can provide important reference information about management and planning for port companies in China and related areas. However, this paper is limited to the availability of data. So the improvement scheme for listed companies in inefficient regional ports needs further study, such as using AHP method.
