Abstract

External factors are identified with the expansion of the Caribbean Basin initiative (CBI) and the implementation of the Free Trade Agreement with Mexico, which will be opened in the future.
A slowdown in the economy of the United States, the era of the economy, the concept of sales of goods, such as family remittances.
A government perspective of 4.5 percent, growth of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was real before the earthquakes occurred in the first two months of this year. For the Central Reserve Bank (BCR) and other spokespersons of the official economic policy, this growth is feasible even in the current circumstances; possibly the thesis is based on the conviction of a public investment of the estimation of investment and private consumption, in harmony with the precepts of the Keynesian theory of using public investment as an engine to encourage demand.
Undoubtedly, Keynesian theory has been harshly questioned by the defenses of the market system, but it seems that in the current sector it has become a business sector that hardly responds to the reconstruction effort.
