Abstract

This paper aims to build and evaluate long-term scenarios within the economy of the state of Sergipe so as to identify sectors with a greater capacity to leverage the state's economic growth and mitigate regional disparities. We use a dynamic and inter-regional CGE model, calibrated for the year 2015 and 41 sectors. Our simulations capture he effects of sectorial shocks in the state and explore the direct and indirect effects of such shocks throughout the economy. The main results show that sectors such as Agriculture, Transport, Financial intermediation, and Public Utility Industrial Services all have an above average impact on the state’s GDP and contribute to a reduction in regional disparities.
