Entrepreneurial Gaps in the Pacific Alliance

Abstract:
Not available

Resumen:
Un ecosistema emprendedor saludable permite que las empresas puedan surgir y crecer, generando empleos y un mayor dinamismo económico.
Por ello, es de interés para los países de la región entender los obstáculos para solucionarlos y potenciar aquellas políticas y programas que están generando beneficios a los emprendedores de la región.

[…]A partir de esta necesidad es que el presente estudio busca identificar las brechas existentes en el ecosistema del emprendimiento en los países miembros de la Alianza del Pacífico (Chile, Colombia, México y Perú), junto con proponer recomendaciones de políticas públicas, a partir de las necesidades declaradas por emprendedores de estos cuatro países.

Este estudio identifica las diez brechas más críticas para los países miembros de la Alianza del Pacífico, respecto al promedio de los países OCDE, a partir de distintos rankings internacionales, […] Estas brechas guardan relación con aspectos regulatorios, de financiamiento y nivel de la inversión pública y privada en investigación e innovación.

[…]Como está expuesto en el Capítulo 1, sección 7, en los cuatro países, tanto hombres como mujeres, describen como la principal prioridad la necesidad de disminuir los impuestos aplicados a las Pymes. Adicionalmente, todos los países comparten la prioridad de generar políticas referentes a la creación de nuevos instrumentos públicos de financiamiento y la creación de incentivos tributarios para la inversión en I+D.
Asimismo, las prioridades mencionados por los emprendedores son contrastadas con las brechas identificadas a través de indicadores públicos (indicadores regionales y datos OCDE).

Otras prioridades de política pública mencionadas por los emprendedores son: simplificación de trámites y costos para los procesos de calidad, registro y exportación (Colombia, México y Perú); creación de centros de desarrollo empresarial para capacitar y asesorar a nuevas empresas (Colombia, México y Perú); disminución de la diferencia en la tasa de interés cobrada a Pymes y a grandes empresas (Chile y México); y pagos justos y a tiempo a proveedores emprendedores (Chile).

How to Foster the Internationalisation of SMEs through the Pacific Alliance Integration Process

Abstract:
This report is a preliminary stocktaking exercise, which underscores the significant opportunities that further intra-regional integration and support for SME internationalisation could bring to the economies of the four countries concerned. Representing close to 99% of businesses and 67% of employment, a comprehensive joint strategy in support of SME competitiveness and internationalisation could result in significant gains in terms of both productivity and inclusive growth.

  • Section 1 provides a general context of SMEs and the existing trade structure in the PA, and of challenges and opportunities that SMEs face when engaging in international activities.
  • Section 2 takes stock of PA countries’ current policy efforts and initiatives carried out to promote SME development and internationalisation; provides elements for the PA to consider in advancing their joint agenda, grouped in the policy domains of finance, business environment, firm capabilities, market
    access and trade.

Overall, the building of a regional market through the PA’s programme of trade and investment liberalisation, as well as the fragmentation of production into global value chains (GVCs), opens new opportunities for SMEs. However, trade and investment liberalisation alone will not be sufficient to secure a higher level of SME internationalisation. The PA economies, particularly Chile, Colombia and Peru, are currently concentrated on a few resource-oriented sectors where SMEs play a marginal role. The PA will need policies to promote economic diversification and support entrepreneurship and enterprise development to build productive capacities and develop new comparative advantages in the manufacturing and service sectors in order to broaden and deepen trade flows and enable a more active role for SMEs.
