The Effect of Bank Credit and the Trade Patterns of Colombian Exporters

Abstract: In this paper we use manufacturing data on Colombian exports and bank financing to estimate the credit elasticity of exports. The data allows us to construct a supply side instrumental variable for the credit of manufacturers that we use to address a possible reverse causality problem. We find that access to credit produces a significant increase in the revenue of exporters, explained by the positive effect of credit on the trade margins. Likewise, we find that across manufacturers, the impact of credit on the… Show more

“…The authors found a positive effect of credit on exporter's revenue, and their study further analyzed the impact of credit on the size of the manufacturer to show that medium and large manufacturers tend to use credit for exploring market destinations and reach. At the same time, Molina and Roa (2014) observed no significant gain of credit for small manufacturers. Erkan et al (2010) determined the effect of internal energy consumption on exports in Turkey for the period 1970 to 2006 by using cointegration and Granger causality tests and impulse response functions.…”

“…To avoid its hostile impacts on sector growth, steady liberalization of energy prices for agricultural usage is suggested. Molina and Roa (2014) followed the reverse causality approach to test the association between the demand for domestic credit and export presentation of Colombian exports. The authors found a positive effect of credit on exporter's revenue, and their study further analyzed the impact of credit on the size of the manufacturer to show that medium and large manufacturers tend to use credit for exploring market destinations and reach.…”
