Description
La industria textil, es uno de los sectores más importantes en la economía mexicana en términos de empleo, unidades económicas y valor agregado bruto que genera. En este contexto, cobra especial importancia la promoción del sector como vía para lograr su reactivación, lo que repercutirá no sólo en el sector en sí mismo, sino en la balanza comercial del país, entre otros beneficios. El objetivo de este artículo es denotar la competitividad de las exportaciones del sector textil en México, frente a la competencia de China en el contexto mundial. Para la cual se utilizarán dos metodologías: la primera será el índice balanza-flujo (Vij), la cual supone que el patrón comercial de los productos reflejan los costos relativos, así como las diferencias de los factores en calidad y servicio; la segunda será el Método de Análisis de Participación Constante del Mercado (MCS), el cual permite descomponer el crecimiento de las exportaciones y estudiar su comportamiento con el fin de evaluar el grado en que los factores estructurales y de competitividad explican su desempeño en un periodo de tiempo determinado. La interpretación de un índice permite tener un panorama general de la situación imperante en la competitividad textil. En este contexto, se concluye que la presencia de China en los mercados representa un choque importante sobre la capacidad de atracción de IED del sector textil mexicano.
The textile industry is one of the most important sectors in the Mexican economy in terms of employment, economic units and generated gross added value. In this context, the promotion of the sector takes special importance as a mean to achieve its revival, which will affect not only the sector itself but the country’s trade balance, among other benefits. The aim of this article is to denote the export competitiveness of the textile sector in Mexico, facing Chinese competition in the global context. For which two methodologies will be used: the first is the balance-flow index (Vij), which assumes that the trade pattern of the products reflects the relative costs and differences in quality and service factors, the second will be the Analysis of Market Constant Share Method (MCS), which allows to decompose the growth of exports and to study their behavior in order to assess the extent to which structural and competitiveness factors explain their performance over a determined period of time. An index interpretation can have an overview of the situation in the textile competitiveness. In this context, we conclude that China’s presence in markets represents a major shock on the capacity to attract FDI from the Mexican textile industry.
