description The purpose of this paper is to analyze the behavior of remittances from Spain and the United States to Colombia in the last nine years, searching specifically what its long-term determinants are. To achieve it, cointegration analysis validated with an error correction method is implemented. It is found that the series under analysis for both Spain and the United States are cointegrated, i.e. there are stable long-term relationships between remittances, GDP, unemployment and the exchange rate, although the rate of convergence between the short and long term within this ratio is high for the U.S. and slower for Spain.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the behavior of remittances from Spain and the United States to Colombia in the last nine years, searching specifically what its long-term determinants are. To achieve it, cointegration analysis validated with an error correction method is implemented. It is found that the series under analysis for both Spain and the United States are cointegrated, i.e. there are stable long-term relationships between remittances, GDP, unemployment and the exchange rate, although the rate of convergence between the short and long term within this ratio is high for the U.S. and slower for Spain. El propósito del artículo es analizar el comportamiento de las remesas enviadas desde España y Estados Unidos hacia Colombia en los últimos nueve años, y buscar específicamente cuáles son sus determinantes a largo plazo. Para lograrlo se implementa un análisis de cointegración convalidado con un método de corrección de errores. Se encuentra que las series bajo análisis tanto para España como para Estados Unidos están cointegradas, es decir hay relaciones estables de largo plazo entre las remesas, el PIB, el desempleo y el tipo de cambio, aunque la velocidad de convergencia entre el corto y largo plazo de dicha relación es alta para Estados Unidos y más lenta para España.
