Índice de Competitividad Global 2015-2016 Análisis de los Resultados de Chile World Economic Forum – Escuela de Gobierno, UAI Septiembre 2015 El 30 de septiembre de 2015, el Foro Económico Mundial y la Escuela de Gobierno de la Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez, institución socia del Foro en su programa de competitividad, lanzaron el Informe de Competitividad Mundial 2015-2016 (ver http://www.weforum.org/issues/globalcompetitiveness). En esta nueva entrega del informe, Chile retrocedió dos puestos en el Índice de Competitividad Global (ICG) respecto al año 2014, ubicándose en el lugar 35 entre 140 países 1. Pese a mejoras puntuales en 2007, 2010 y 2014, esto confirma una tendencia negativa en la posición de Chile desde 2004 a la fecha. (Gráfico N°1).

En consecuencia, Chile descendió del puesto 33 en 2014 al puesto 35 en 2015 (Puerto Rico, que estaba en el lugar 32 en 2014 no fue incluido en la medición 2015, por lo que sólo bajamos dos puestos y no tres). 1 Julio Guzmán C. [email protected] Fernando Medina G. [email protected] En términos comparativos, Chile continúa liderando la región. Este año se amplía la brecha en términos del índice de competitividad entre Chile, Perú (69) y Brasil (75), pero se reduce entre Chile, México (57) y Colombia (61). Estos movimientos se deben a la caída en el ranking de los dos primeros países y a la subida en el ranking de los dos últimos. Respecto a las fortalezas del país, al observar los 3 subíndices y los 12 pilares a partir de los cuales se construye el ICG (Gráfico N°2), se observa que el desarrollo del mercado financiero (21), el entorno macroeconómico (29) y la calidad de las instituciones (32) sobresalen. En tanto que las principales debilidades del país, se encuentran en la salud y educación primaria (74), la eficiencia del mercado laboral (63) y la sofisticación de los negocios (53).

En cuanto a los subíndices, el mayor retroceso corresponde al subíndice de Requerimientos Básicos (baja del lugar 30 al 36), seguido por el subíndice Potenciadores de Eficiencia (baja del lugar 29 al 31) y el subíndice Sofisticación e Innovación (baja del lugar 49 al 50).

Los principales pilares respecto a las cuales Chile se encuentra rezagado son salud y educación primaria, tecnología, sofisticación de los negocios, innovación e infraestructura.

[email protected] Fernando Medina G. [email protected] ¿Qué es y para qué sirve la competitividad de un país? La competitividad de un país corresponde al conjunto de instituciones, políticas y factores que determinan el nivel de productividad de un país. A su vez, el nivel de productividad de un país determina la capacidad que tiene su economía para crecer y desarrollarse en el tiempo. Una economía más competitiva es una economía más preparada para mantener un ritmo de crecimiento potencial alto y sostenido. ¿Cómo se mide el Índice de Competitividad Global del WEF? El Índice de Competitividad Global, ICG, se mide anualmente sobre la base de tres subíndices: Requerimientos Básicos (26.3%), Potenciadores de Eficiencia (50%) y Factores de Sofisticación e Innovación (23.7%). Estos subíndices están compuestos a su vez por doce pilares, tales como Instituciones, Infraestructura, Eficiencia del Mercado Laboral, Desarrollo Financiero, entre otros. Estos pilares se construyen a partir de 114 indicadores que se calculan a partir de datos “duros”, tales como deuda pública, esperanza de vida, asistencia escolar, entre otros, y de datos cualitativos recolectados por la Encuesta de Opinión Ejecutiva, que en el caso de Chile es aplicada anualmente por la Escuela de Gobierno de la Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez, en su carácter de institución socia del WEF.
