O obxectivo principal deste traballo é analizar a eficiencia técnica do sector químicoespañol. Para iso, vaise seguir o enfoque non-paramétrico coñecido como o método daAnálise Envolvente de Datos (DEA) para avaliar os niveis de eficiencia e o peso relativo dosector na economía. Así mesmo, vaise estimar a converxencia da eficiencia técnica (ET)para cada unha das diferentes Comunidades Autónomas obxecto de estudo, así como, arelación causal existente entre a potenciación do mercado internacional con respecto ávariable ET.Neste documento avalíase o desempeño dunha mostra de 410 empresas pertencentes aosector químico para o período 2007-2011. A base de datos elabórase a partir dosmicrodatos extraídos da Bureau van Dijk Electronic Publishing (BvDP). Os resultadosobtidos recoñecen a existencia de elevados niveis de eficiencia no sector, o que permiteafirmar que resulta ser un sector económico competitivo e eficiente en todos os anos damostra.
In this context, the technical efficiency of the Spanish chemical sector is analyzed. More specifically, it is to follow the nonparametric approach known as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to assess efficiency levels and the relative weight of the sector in the economy method. Furthermore, the convergence of technical efficiency (TE) is estimated for each of the different autonomous communities under study, just as the causal relationship between the empowerment of the international market regarding the TE variable.
In this document the performance of a sample of 410 companies belonging to the Spanish chemical sector for the period 2007-2011 is assessed. The database is compiled from the microdata extracted from Bureau van Dijk Electronic Publishing (BvDP). The results recognize the existence of high levels of efficiency in the industry, allowing us to conclude it turns out to be a competitive and efficient economic industry throughout the years from the sample.
