Abstract

En los últimos años muchos países, incluyendo a Colombia, le han dado la bienvenida a mayores flujos de Inversión Extranjera Directa (IED) motivados, entre otras razones, por la expectativa de que su presencia genere beneficios indirectos sobre la productividad de las empresas locales (spillovers de productividad). Sin embargo, estos beneficios no han sido confirmados por la evidencia econométrica. A la luz de lo anterior, esta investigación indaga sobre la existencia de una relación entre la presencia de IED y la productividad de las empresas manufactureras en Colombia para el período 1995-2000. Los resultados obtenidos indican que i) los encadenamientos hacia atrás que las empresas extranjeras establecen con proveedores de insumos en Colombia son un importante canal de difusión de spillovers de productividad, ii) los encadenamientos hacia delante que las empresas extranjeras crean con clientes locales no parecen tener ningún efecto en la productividad de los últimos. iii) los efectos positivos de la IED en los sectores mismos en los que la IED se ubica parecen estar asociados a los efectos competencia que ésta genera, y parecen disminuir entre mayor sea el grado de apertura al comercio exterior.
