Summary: | This paper analyses the Spanish manufacturing exports to the European Union.
A panel data approach is used to test the hypothesis that there are differences
among manufacturing branches exports in relation to their elasticity to short
term variations in the real effective exchange rate index of the peseta. The main
result is that exports of manufacturing branches controlled by local firms are
more sensible to relative prices changes, but these branches have reduced their
share on overall exports in the under consideration period. Furthermore, those
manufacturing branches controlled by foreign-owned firms have revealed
themselves less sensible to conjunctural variations in the real effective exchange
rate index of the peseta, but have augmented their share in overall export value. En el presente trabajo, referido a los intercambios comerciales españoles de
productos industriales con la Unión Europea, se propone un modelo de datos
de panel para contrastar la hipótesis de la existencia de diferencias (entre las
ramas industriales) en la sensibilidad de las exportaciones a variaciones en el
corto plazo del tipo de cambio efectivo real (TCER) de la peseta. La conclusión
principal del artículo es que las exportaciones de las ramas controladas por
capital nacional son más sensibles a los cambios en precios relativos, pero han
perdido importancia relativa en las exportaciones industriales. Mientras que
aquellas ramas controladas por capital extranjero, insensibles a las variaciones
coyunturales del TCER, han visto aumentar de manera continua su cuota de
participación en las exportaciones. |
