| description |
The aim of this paper is to review the
state of the productive infrastructure of Uruguay and the
development policies that govern it and to propose policy
options for the long term contribution to achieving a higher
level of economic and sustainable development, based on the
premise that there is a link between the development of a
country's infrastructure and its economic growth. The
study analyzes the institutions and pertinent regulations.
The study examines in greater depth the factors related to
infrastructure production that affect the country in a
quantum leap in economic growth. The first study concludes
that while no one can assert that the sectors of
Uruguay's electricity and transportation are
inefficient, there are potential sectoral gains. The policy
options have been framed by strategic pillars for each
sector and can be summarized as follows: Increase the
capacity of transport infrastructure and land ports.
Maximize efficiency in providing service transport.
Strengthen efficient allocation of resources through a
multimodal vision. Improve efficiency and regulation.
Position as a logistics center in Uruguay the MERCOSLJR.
Therefore, the objective of this study is to review the
policies in the areas of Uruguay's productive
infrastucture that can have a major impact on the productive
structure of the country and hence on economic growth, and
hence propose elements and policy options for sectors in the
long term. |
