Competitividad de costos y precios relativos de la industria manufacturera mexicana en el mercado estadounidense

Contenido principal del artículo

Víctor Manuel Cuevas Ahumada

Resumen

Esta investigación evalúa los determinantes a largo plazo de la competitividad de las manufacturas mexicanas en el mercado estadounidense. Para tal fin, se construye un índice de competitividad internacional (CI) y, posteriormente, se especifica y se estima un modelo mediante tres métodos econométricos. La evidencia sugiere que la CI responde a las siguientes variables: tipo de cambio real peso-dólar, tipo de cambio real yuan-dólar, productividad laboral, salarios y costo del crédito. Una contribución importante radica en demostrar que la CI manufacturera se ve afectada por el tipo de cambio real yuan-dólar y el costo real del crédito.
