Abstract

El grado de profundización financiera en Colombia, medido por la relación entre el crédito al sector privado y el PIB, se ubicaba a finales de 2003 por debajo de los niveles que tenía treinta anos atrás. Esos niveles son extremadamente bajos en comparación con los de economías desarrolladas y con los de economías en desarrollo exitosas. Este trabajo analiza los vínculos entre dicho indicador de profundización, los flujos externos de capital y la regulación financiera en Colombia, entre 1974 y 2003. Con métodos de descomposición contable y ejercicios econométricos sencillos, se presenta una visión histórica y se hacen análisis cuantitativos sobre sus determinantes. Se observa que los ciclos en el crédito doméstico al sector privado en Colombia han coincidido con ciclos en la misma dirección en los flujos externos de capital y que ese comportamiento procíclico del crédito ha sido reforzado por la política de regulación financiera.
