Resumen

Se estima el efecto de largo plazo de la repatriación de utilidades de la inversión extranjera directa estadounidense sobre un conjunto de economías latinoamericanas, siguiendo una metodología de cointegración de panel. Los resultados sugieren que la inversión en capital físico, empleo, gasto público en educación y la repatriación de utilidades de la IED impactan en la actividad económica de la región. En particular, la repatriación muestra signo negativo, constituyéndose en una barrera al crecimiento económico en la región. Por ende, una regulación que propicie competitivamente las reinversiones en las economías favorecería el desempeño económico en esos países.
