Abstract

El objetivo principal de los registros mercantiles es garantizar que las empresas cumplan con la normativa vigente y poner esa información a disposición del público. Así, los registros son “difusores” de información, promueven confianza en las transacciones comerciales, facilitan el acceso al sistema financiero formal y al sistema jurídico y permiten participar en la contratación pública. Los diferentes estudios muestran que el número de trámites, el tiempo que toman y los costos monetarios asociados impactan la probabilidad de que las firmas se registren y por esta vía entren a la formalidad. Dado los diferentes problemas que presenta la estructura del registro mercantil en Colombia, se simularon escenarios hipotéticos con estructuras de tarifas alternativas, acordes con los principios que debería seguir un esquema de precios como estos, y se presentan los efectos en el costo del registro para los diferentes tamanos de empresas y en los resultados financieros de las Cámaras de Comercio.
