Decisiones En El Comercio Internacional: El Caso Del Cobre, 1988-2016

Author

Abstract

La presente investigación busca cuantificar los efectos de diversas variables macroeconómicas en las transacciones bilaterales de ventas de cobre entre los socios comerciales. Para la evidencia empírica se emplea el Modelo de Gravitación Comercial desarrollado por Krugman y Helpman (1985) y una base de datos de transacciones comerciales que comprende el periodo 1988-2016. Los resultados obtenidos sugieren que la distancia entre países afecta a las exportaciones de cobre, siendo su elasticidad con respecto a las exportaciones de cobre entre 0.597 y 0.602 para los valores en dólares de las exportaciones y entre 0.340 y 0.356 para la cantidad exportada. This research seeks to quantify the effects of various macroeconomic variables on bilateral copper sales transactions between business partners. For empirical evidence, the Commercial Gravitation Model developed by Krugman and Helpman (1985) and a database of commercial transactions covering the period 1988-2016 are used. The results obtained suggest that the distance between countries affects copper exports, its elasticity with respect to copper exports between 0.597 and 0.602 for dollar values of exports and between 0.340 and 0.356 for the amount exported.
