Abstract
The objective of this research article is to determine the positioning and commercial dynamics of the department of Santander (Colombia) in the year 2020 through the application of the indicators of commercial concentration at the product level, proportions in world commercial exchanges, number of destinations/main origins, Relative Commercial Balance Index-IBCR and the Balassa index. An analytical and deductive method is used, in which initially the export behavior of the department of Santander is analyzed by chapters of the customs tariff, in order to select the exportable offer based on this behavior. Then, the first 5 tariff chapters are taken as the exportable basket of the department of Santander, according to the participation and export dynamics in the year 2020. Among the main results, the high level of concentration of Santander's exports in the year 2020 stands out, where oil and coffee occupy 64% of the total exports of the department. The first import tariff items concentrate 51% of the total imports of Santander in 2020, presenting a lower concentration compared to exports. Santander contributed 0.002% of world exports in 2020. The products with the highest percentage of participation are coffee with a share of 0.29% of world exports of the grain. The department of Santander contributes 0.003% of world imports in 2020. The products that have a higher percentage of participation of Santander in world imports in 2020 are agricultural products with percentage shares of: corn (0.29%), concentrated milk (0.21%), soybean oil residues (0.19%) and wheat (0.14%).
