Abstract

Este artículo tiene como objetivos: cuantificar la pérdida de bienestar social en la industria regulada de microfinanzas en el Perú, generada por el poder de mercado y analizar su efecto en la eficiencia de las entidades microfinancieras, en el periodo 2003-2019. Los resultados muestran que la pérdida de bienestar social asociada al poder mercado sigue una tendencia creciente, pasando del 0.12% del PBI en el 2003 a 0.27% del PBI en el 2019. Por otro lado, encontramos que el poder de mercado tiene un efecto positivo sobre la eficiencia de las IMFs peruanas. Por lo tanto, la reducción del poder de mercado da lugar, de un lado, a una ganancia de bienestar al reducir la pérdida de bienestar social (triángulo de Harberger) y, de otro, a una pérdida de bienestar debido a la disminución de la eficiencia de las IMFs. No obstante, encontramos que la ganancia en bienestar es mayor a la pérdida, con lo cual, el efecto neto de una reducción del poder de mercado sobre el bienestar social, es positivo.
