Resumen
CUEVA-RODRIGUEZ, Lucía y JACOME-ESTRELLA, Hugo de Jesús. Service sector labor productivity and economic growth in Ecuador. Prob. Des [online]. 2024, vol.55, n.216, pp.113-139. Epub 21-Jun-2024. ISSN 0301-7036. https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2024.216.70085.
This article analyzes the relationship between the services sector and Ecuadorian economic growth using cointegration and causality econometric techniques from 1990-2018. The results indicate that services as a whole, particularly trade and transportation, positively impact economic growth in the long run. However, in the short term, services as a whole have a negative effect, which may be explained by the continuous deterioration of their productivity. Meanwhile, there is a causality effect ranging from trade to economic growth, and from GDP per capita to services as a whole and transportation.
