Abstract

El Seguro de Cesantía es una de las innovaciones más importantes de la seguridad social chilena del último tiempo. Uno de sus principales pilares lo constituye el carácter pre-financiado de sus beneficios, de donde nace la importancia de que los fondos acumulados se inviertan adecuadamente. En este artículo se analizan las consideraciones que debiesen guiar la inversión de los Fondos de Cesantía. En particular, se revelan los componentes de las estrategias de inversión que resultan óptimas para administrar los fondos acumulados en las Cuentas Individuales de Cesantía y en el Fondo de Cesantía Solidario, de acuerdo a lo que prescribe un modelo de selección de cartera dinámico que captura los objetivos de inversión de cada fondo. Los resultados obtenidos sugieren la conveniencia de diferenciar la política de inversión de ambos fondos. Adicionalmente, por medio de un ejercicio de simulación se exploran los efectos de permitir que los fondos acumulados puedan invertir en instrumentos de renta variable. Los resultados indican que las ganancias medidas en relación a la distribución de las tasas de reemplazo y el valor del Fondo de Cesantía Solidario podrían resultar considerables..
