Regional Integration in Latin America - The Pacific Alliance a Way Ahead
Spanish, Theses

Opportunities and Threats for Colombia from Being Part of the Pacific Alliance

Abstract:
The project analysed the asymmetries between the four economies of the Pacific Alliance members and how Colombia can face these challenges
and transform them into opportunities, according to the experience of its allies across different areas.
According to databases of the signatory countries, the project found that the trade balance between Colombia and Mexico has a deficit and is continuously growing. This deficit could be offset through future negotiations, and agricultural specialisation improving compliance with sanitary and phytosanitary measures required by those markets.
The doors are opened to enter into agreements of great importance such as the TPP. The Republic of Chile, the United States of Mexico and the Republic of Peru are already part of it, and this agreement represents an opportunity for Colombia to be in the Asia – Pacific market and to achieve the sustainability of its companies, industries and sectors in the global context.

Resumen:
Por medio de este proyecto se analizaron las asimetrías presentes en las economías de los cuatro países miembros de la Alianza del Pacífico y cómo Colombia puede enfrentar estos y retos y convertirlos en oportunidades de acuerdo a la experiencia en diferentes áreas de sus países aliados.
De acuerdo a las bases de datos de los países firmantes se encontró que la balanza comercial entre Colombia y México presenta un déficit y está en constante crecimiento, pudiendo ser contrarrestada con futuras negociaciones y especialización de la industria agropecuaria tomando mejores medidas sanitarias y fitosanitarias requeridas por dichos mercados.
Igualmente se abren las puertas para ingresar a acuerdos con gran índole mundial como el TPP, del cual la República de Chile, los Estados Unidos Mexicanos y la República del Perú ya hacen parte lo que representa para Colombia una oportunidad para penetrar al mercado de Asia – Pacífico y buscar la perdurabilidad de las empresas, industrias y sectores dentro de un contexto global.
