Abstract

AbstractThe paper analyzes the effects of changes in the purchase of computer equipment and peripherals (investment in information and communication technologies – ICT) on exports by classes of Mexican manufacturing industry using data from the Annual Industrial Survey and Industrial Stan OECD data base for the period 2003–2006. The paper distinguishes among industries with high and low technology. We used a cross‐section methodology to evaluate the effect of such technologies in each year of the period. The results indicate that investment in ICT has a positive effect on manufacturing exports, particularly in industries with low technological content that can integrate ICT into their export activities.
