Abstract
In an open economic entity, trade openness and financial openness have both formed an interactive relationship with technology. Based on the existing research, this paper intends to establish a unified composite model and to prove in a quantitative way that in the OECD countries, technical level is mainly promoted by their investment in research and development. Although trade openness and financial openness also play positive roles in promoting technical level, their influence is relatively weak, and the promotion effect of the financial opening will delay for 1 week.
