"Modelo de desarrollo que JP Morgan plantea en TIGRE busca crecer abaratando el trabajo": P. Jaimes

RAYA talks with Paola Jaimes, economist at the University of Massachusetts: "The development model that JP Morgan proposes in TIGRE seeks to grow by cheapening labor." "Reducing labor costs means that the worker receives less than what they produce." The economist from the University of Massachusetts questioned the report with which the US investment bank endorsed the economic program of President-elect Abelardo de la Espriella and warned that it prioritizes a model based on cheapening labor and labor and environmental deregulation for extractive industries. In this RAYA Conversa, she argues that this strategy could reverse progress in social rights in Colombia and warns about the role of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), stating that it responds to a political agenda influenced by the United States.
