Crédito al consumo en Argentina durante periodos normales y de crisis económicas

Esta investigación indaga sobre la relación entre factores macroeconómicos y la decisión de las familias para financiar su consumo con deuda. Particularmente, se estudia la correspondencia entre el ingreso, la tasa de interés, el desempleo y la confianza de los consumidores con el endeudamiento de las familias. Se verifica también si las relaciones entre las variables macroeconómicas (particularmente el ingreso) y la deuda para consumo son coherentes con las teorías que se han escrito sobre el consumo. Como estudio de caso se toma Argentina, pues permite el análisis bajo distintos escenarios normales y de crisis económicas (1994-2011).
