Abstract

La crisis financiera que inició en los Estados Unidos en 2007 influyó para que los países miembros de Unión Europea (ue) sufrieran en 2009 la mayor caída de su actividad económica desde el final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Algunos de los países miembros de la ue con mayores desequilibrios económicos previos, como fue el caso de Grecia, sufrieron los efectos de la desconfianza de los mercados financieros y tuvieron que implementar medidas de ajuste con los consecuentes costos sociales, políticos y económicos. Grecia fue uno de los primeros países de la ue en dar muestras de una crisis como consecuencia de haber incrementado su riesgo soberano debido a los desequilibrios acumulados en su economía y su alto déficit público. En el presente artículo se analizan, desde los principios de la teoría de juegos, la manera en que los diferentes actores financieros [gobierno griego (gg), inversionistas y ue] tomaron decisiones que derivaron en la crisis de Grecia. Se plantean las decisiones de dichos actores como un juego dinámico con información completa. Así mismo, se establece la solución del juego mediante los equilibrios de Nash en estrategias puras y perfectas en subjuegos/ The 2007 us financial crisis impacted in the European Union (eu) countries. The eu states suffered in 2009 the greatest fall in their economic activities since the Second World War. Some eu countries with higher previous economics imbalances, like Greece, suffered the distrust of financial markets and had to implement austerity policies. Greece was one of the first eu countries to show financial crisis signs due to increase its sovereign risk. In the present work we analyzed, from the principles of game theory, how different financial agents (Greek Government, Investors and the eu) made decisions that led into Greece crisis. The financial agents decisions are shown as a dynamic game with complete information. This paper also provides the solution of the game through Nash equilibrium.
