Abstract

En este artículo se analiza el efecto Harrod-Balassa-Samuelson (HBS) para el caso de México durante el periodo 1970-2009. Para ello se utiliza un modelo econométrico que incorpora la presencia de cambios estructurales. Los resultados alcanzados en esta investigación sugieren que no se cumple el efecto HBS entre México y Estados Unidos durante este periodo y, por lo tanto, no se corrobora estadísticamente que las diferentes tasas de crecimiento de la productividad de los bienes comerciables y no comerciables entre ambos países hayan afectado al tipo de cambio real.
