Abstract

El presente artículo busca establecer las primeras bases para analizar la viabilidad de una coordinación de políticas macroeconómicas entre Colombia y otros países de la región. En particular, el trabajo busca determinar cuáles países tienen un ciclo económico similar al de nuestro país y establecer las causas de estas similitudes. El esclarecimiento de estos dos interrogantes permitirá anticipar algunos choques externos y suavizar su efecto sobre la economía mediante un conjunto de políticas, que puede evolucionar hasta el punto de constituir un programa de políticas macroeconómicas coordinadas. En efecto, a pesar de que nuestras economías no se encuentren aún preparadas para enfrentar un proceso de coordinación de políticas, la rápida integración comercial y financiera en la región, puede hacer insostenible su estabilidad sin un programa de coordinación macroeconómica. El principal resultado de este trabajo está en el hallazgo de una gran similitud entre el ciclo colombiano, el brasileño y el costarricense. La alta correlación que existe entre los términos de intercambio de estos países y los moderados niveles de comercio entre las tres economías2, sugieren el hecho de que estas similitudes están relacionadas con las exportaciones cafeteras3. Sin embargo, es importante anotar que a partir de los setenta, el café no es un producto particularmente importante para Brasil y por lo tanto, se hace necesario encontrar otras causas que estén determinando la similitud entre el ciclo económico colombiano y el brasileño.
