Descripción

Contenido

La relación entre desarrollo financiero y crecimiento económico ha sido un sujeto de debate en el pasado y lo es todavía hoy.
El pensamiento mayoritario expresado en el Handbook of Economic Growth es que a mayor desarrollo financiero, por ejemplo mayor credito al sector privado o mayor financiamiento en los mercados bursátiles, mayor sería el crecimiento económico medido como el crecimiento del PBI real per cápita y por lo tanto mayor el bienestar de la población en la medida que se desarrollan los mercados financieros. O sea que el desarrollo financiero impulsaría el crecimiento económico. Otros opinan que el desarrollo financiero sigue al crecimiento del PBI de las economías. Es así que donde hay mayor actividad económica van los financistas con lo que se produciría desarrollo financiero.
En el seminario se presenta un trabajo para 98 países durante 45 años (1961-2005) donde se pone en duda el pensamiento mayoritario ya que no se encuentra relación entre el desarrollo financiero y el crecimiento económico.
