Abstract

Dadas la estructura y características de los flujos de capital extranjero hacia el país, las líneas de crédito son los únicos flujos intermediados por el sistema bancario. El resto de tipos de flujos de capital corresponde a la deuda del gobierno que es contratada para fines específicos y que, al mismo tiempo, no pasa por los bancos del sistema. El otro flujo importante es el de los créditos comerciales contratados directamente con instituciones financieras del exterior. En tal sentido, este trabajo tiene como objetivo medir el efecto que las líneas de crédito tienen en la intermediación de fondos por parte de los bancos del sistema y como consecuencia sobre algunas variables de la economía. Por un lado, caracteriza las líneas de crédito en términos de tendencia, volatilidad, participación en la balanza de pagos y en el sector financiero; y, por el otro, evalúa el efecto de las líneas de crédito, dado el mecanismo de transmisión respectivo, sobre algunas variables tales como la inversión, el crédito, la cuenta corriente y el tipo de cambio. En general se encuentra que las líneas de crédito tienen efectos positivos y significativos sobre la inversión, el ahorro y la cuenta corriente. Adicionalmente, este tipo de flujos tiende a apreciar el tipo de cambio.
