14 Official Focus and Myth of Argentina s Growth during Commodity Prices Boom Argentine GDP growth was the highest growth of its history (Chinese rates). The Highest Growth Myth Argentina was the Growth champion of Latin America. The Latin America s Growth Champion Myth.But 2007 administration decided to hide inflation by intervening CPI and National Statistics Institute (INDEC)
15 MAIN ISSUE Measuring Argentina GDP Growth during commodities price boom: analyze and discuss methodologies, stylized facts and growth profile Recalculate GDP as per traditional Argentine National Accounts Methodology Reliable GDP and Productivity Diagnosis 15
16 STRUCTURE BACKGROUND AND FRAMEWORK OF HISTORICAL NATIONAL ACCOUNTS OF ARGENTINA AND LAC MAIN RESULTS: LEVEL GAPS AND GROWTH GAPS: AGGREGATE AND BY INDUSTRY MYTHS, LEGENDS AND TYRANNY OF NUMBERS METHODOLOGICAL MYTH HIGHEST GROWTH IN HISTORY MYTH LATIN AMERICA GROWTH CHAMPION MYTH SUSTAINABLE GROWTH MYTH (effects of GDP manipulation on Source of Growth and TFP

18 BACKGROUND National Accounts in Argentina: from 1930s to last Reliable 93 Base year + I-O 97+ Argentina was one of the regional leaders in terms of statistics Measuring Argentina s GDP Growth: From Myths To Facts World Economics, the Journal of Current Economic Analysis and Policy
19
20 Main Methodological Aspects Recalculate GDP volume index as SNA Ar, not the desire GDP: vrg. ex. Productivity of services or quality changes of outputs Taking into account these traditional methodology and similar data sources as SNA Ar (1999) with published series today at very high detail level (4-5 ISIC digit rev.3) from 1993 to test the reproduction and correlation of Activity Level with official figures without any econometric imputation 20
21 Main Methodological Aspects Traditional approach of quarterly GDP estimation from supply side in Argentina Exhaustiveness, representativeness and consistent criteria: capture the output volume by representative public and published indicators (chambers, official and private institutions) not INDEC surveys!! Avoiding non-representativeness of surveys and high inflation distortion problem Not all Surveys have enough representation of the global output by industry V.I. obtained through Deflated Values from Surveys could be distorted under High Inflation 21
22 Main Methodological Aspects Commodity Flow: Trade, Cargo Transport through IO coef. by industry Manufacturing Sector by industry by representative volume indicators Demand functions in some services: restaurants, non-regular passengers transport (from 2002 only income elasticity) Non-Market services by employment indicators: education, health, public administration, other services Only Financial Intermediation depends on CPI deflator 22

52 CONCLUSIONS Inflation in Argentina: denying instead of fighting Instead of changing economic policy or swap the bonds with another clauses, Argentina open the Pandora box of manipulation with a Non-Schumpeterian Destruction of Statistical System. Why alternative CPI and GDP could exists: because Argentina was the historical regional leader in statistics. Argentine official GDP could not avoid the so-called Pandora Box effects, caused by the political intervention of official statistics 52
53 CONCLUSIONS The last decade did not show the highest GDP Growth in country s history Argentina was not Latin America s growth champion Argentina the worst long run GDP growth of Latin America Argentina did not take advantage from last commodity price boom No productivity gains in the long run Importance of not only sustainable but also low volatility and steady long run growth 53
