3. Sustrayendo recursos cuando la regulación es laxa : La crisis bancaria colombiana de los 1980s (Tunneling when Regulation is Lax: The Colombian Banking Crisis of the 1980s)
abstractThe English version of this paper can be found at http://ssrn.com/abstract=4292215.Spanish Abstract: Estudiamos la resiliencia de los bancos a crisis macroeconómicas en un contexto de regulaciones microprudenciales laxas: Colombia durante la crisis de los 1980s. Múltiples bancos se quebraron durante esta crisis debido a prácticas que sustrajeron recursos de los bancos hacia sus accionistas mayoritarios. Tales prácticas —préstamos a accionistas para comprar empresas, concentración de préstamos y fraude contable— fueron facilitadas por la concentración de poder y los vínculos con el poder político de los bancos locales. Por el contrario, los bancos de propiedad extranjera se desempeñaron relativamente bien durante la crisis gracias a tres factores: (i) importaron tecnologías crediticias desde sus casas matrices, (ii) no formaban parte de grupos empresariales locales con propiedad concentrada, y (iii) eran menos propensos, ex-ante, a recibir un rescate del gobierno. Estos factores continuaron siendo relevantes durante los 1980s, a pesar de que el gobierno había obligado a los bancos extranjeros a convertirse en accionistas minoritarios de sus filiales en 1975

4. Tunneling when Regulation is Lax : The Colombian Banking Crisis of the 1980s
abstractThe resilience of firms to industry-wide shocks has positive externalities in industries with systemic risk, such as banking. We study the resilience of banks to macroeconomic slowdowns in a context of lax microprudential regulations: Colombia during the 1980s. Multiple banks performed poorly during the crisis due to practices that tunneled resources from depositors to shareholders and board members. Such practices —related lending for company acquisitions, loan concentration, and accounting fraud— were enabled by power concentration and links with political power among local banks. In contrast, foreign-owned banks performed relatively well during the crisis due to three factors: (i) foreign-owned banks imported governance institutions and lending procedures from their headquarters, (ii) foreign-owned banks were not part of local business groups with concentrated ownership, and (iii) foreign-owned banks were ex-ante less likely to receive a bailout from the government. These factors continued to be relevant into the 1980s, even though the Colombian government had forced foreign banks to become minority stakeholders of their subsidiaries in 1975

6. De la crisis de 'fin de siglo' a la del ‘Coronavirus'. La economía colombiana en las primeras dos décadas del siglo XXI (From the ‘End of the Century Crisis’ to the ‘Coronavirus’ Crisis. The Colombian Economy in the First Two Decades of the XXI Century)
abstractSpanish Abstract: Los veinte años transcurridos entre 2000 y 2019 fueron testigos de cambios importantes en la economía mundial y en la colombiana. El período comenzó en la crisis de ‘fin de siglo' y terminó unas semanas antes de propagarse por el mundo entero la pandemia del coronavirus con su profunda crisis sanitaria y económica. El coronavirus modificó las perspectivas futuras, enmarcando las dos décadas entre dos crisis y convirtiéndolas en un período único de la historia económica colombiana. En este documento se describe la evolución económica y social de Colombia con base en los principales indicadores y, consecuentemente, se realiza un balance de los principales desafíos que tendrá el país durante la tercera década del siglo XXI

7. Albert Hirschman en Colombia y la planeación del desarrollo
abstractThis essay refers to the experience of analysing the economy and designing strategies of public investment in Colombia during the middle of the twentieth century. The story of the planning efforts undertaken in the country before the Report of the Planning National Council of 1952, in whose preparation Albert Hirschman (who lived in Colombia between 1952 and 1956) participated, and the main elements of theReport, are recounted. In the pages of this essay it is possible to detect the way in which Hirschman built the central ideas of his book ‘TheStrategy of Economic Development’, published in the United States in 1958. The essay concludes with a comment about the present need of Colombia to apply the conceptual principles elaborated by Hirschman, which constitute his main legacy for the developing countries.

8. The Liberal Rarity of South America : Oil and Mining Policy Reform in Colombia in the 2000s
abstractEnglish Abstract: Even though Colombia exports minerals and oil, it cannot be considered as an oil or mineral-rich country. Colombia depends largely on this to generate income for the central and subnational governments, but because of the limited availability of these resources, and the comparatively large costs of exploiting them, Colombia has required foreign and domestic private investment to develop the sector. Through an overview of the history of mining and petroleum in Colombia, this paper revises the position of the government towards foreign investment in these sectors. Ultimately, it argues that Colombia has not experienced energy and resource nationalism, at a comparable level to other countries of the region, due to the low capacity of the state to develop these sectors in the absence of private and foreign investment. Spanish Abstract: Aunque Colombia exporta minerales e hidrocarburos, no puede ser considerado como un país rico en estos recursos. Colombia depende en gran medida de estos recursos para generar ingresos al gobierno central y a los gobiernos locales, pero debido a la escasa disponibilidad que tiene a ellos y al alto costo comparativo que representa su explotación, este país ha necesitado inversión privada nacional y extranjera para desarrollar estos sectores. A través de una revisión de la historia de la minería y el sector petrolero en Colombia, este paper estudia la posición del gobierno frente a la inversión privada y la inversión extranjera en el sector minero energético. Finalmente se argumenta que Colombia no ha experimentado nacionalismo energético en comparación con otros países de la región, debido a la escasa capacidad del Estado para desarrollar estos sectores sin la inversión privada y extranjera
