Abstract

El presente texto aborda las implicancias de las restricciones arancelarias, no arancelarias y de control de cambios sobre las importaciones que llegan a Argentina desde sus principales socios comerciales: Brasil, Estados Unidos y China, durante el período 2004-2023. La metodología empleada es la regresión simple para series temporales. En la primera parte del análisis, se utiliza un modelo log-log para estimar las elasticidades, y en la segunda parte se emplea un modelo log-lineal con variables de interacción y una batería de variables dummy. Entre los principales resultados, se observa que la relación entre el tipo de cambio y las importaciones en los casos de Brasil y China no sigue lo que sugiere la teoría económica, ya que muestra una relación positiva en un modelo sencillo. Sin embargo, al incorporar en el modelo las medidas arancelarias, no arancelarias y los controles de cambio como determinantes, se encuentra que la relación entre el tipo de cambio real y las importaciones es inversa y coherente con la teoría económica, lo que indica la existencia de determinantes relevantes que distorsionan este fenómeno. En este sentido, otro resultado importante es que las restricciones observadas en este estudio implican, en conjunto, una disminución del 16,47% en las importaciones provenientes de Brasil en comparación con el año anterior. Por otro lado, la presencia del CEPO cambiario, como lo definen Mosquera S. y Sturzenegger F. (2021), tiene implicancias negativas sobre las importaciones procedentes de China, reduciéndolas en un 91,8%, ceteris paribus. Estos y otros hallazgos se exponen a continuación.
