Abstract As a current main form of opening up to the outside world, influences of the productive service trade liberalization on the development of national manufacturing industries have not been unified empirically and theoretically. The present research studies its effects on manufacture productivity by constructing a theoretical model, and verifies the effects with the Cross-Country Panel Data of 69 countries’ from 2008 to 2012. It shows that the productive service trade liberalization can promote manufacture productivity, and the promotion varies with different countries’ income level and productive service sectors. Productive service trade liberalization has greater impact on high-income countries than low-income countries. Besides, its effects are more significant for financial and business services, and less significant for transport and telecommunication services.
