Abstract

La inmigración de ciudadanos venezolanos se ha convertido en uno de los retos más importantes que enfrenta la economía colombiana en el presente. Se estima que para fines de 2018 había más de 1.200.000 ciudadanos venezolanos con vocación de permanencia en el país. Semejante flujo migratorio tiene importantes efectos en dimensiones tan relevantes como los salarios, el empleo, la distribución del ingreso, el crecimiento económico y las finanzas públicas. En este trabajo se hace un análisis del impacto económico del fenómeno migratorio venezolano. En este trabajo se hace un análisis del impacto económico del fenómeno migratorio venezolano hacia Colombia en el pasado reciente, analizando sus causas, su magnitud, sus características, y sus implicaciones económicas en el corto y el mediano plazo. Además de dimensionar los costos para el fisco nacional de atender las necesidades básicas de los migrantes, con base en la teoría y la experiencia internacional se identifican los efectos favorables que podría tener la migración en el mediano plazo, y se formulan recomendaciones de política para minimizar sus costos.
