    Se analiza la corresponsalía bancaria internacional colombiana enfatizando el estudio en el Banco Caja Social. Se da apertura a una línea de investigación en Mercados Financieros Internacionales, dentro de la cual no se tienen antecedentes dentro del Programa de Negocios Internacionales de la Universitaria Agustiniana- Uniagustiniana. Para el desarrollo de la investigación se analizaron los sistemas de corresponsales internacionales bancarios, para aterrizar en la situación de la corresponsalía bancaria internacional en Colombia, Caso Banco Caja Social. Se identificaron posibles áreas de oportunidad para estos instrumentos financieros y la contribución de los mismos a la internacionalización financiera del país. Se compiló la información estadística reportada por las autoridades competentes, para el caso colombiano: Banco de la República, Asociación Bancaria y de Entidades Financieras de Colombia (Asobancaria), Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia (a partir de los Indicadores Generales de los Establecimientos de Crédito) e Informe de la Junta Directiva del Banco de la República. Se pudo evidenciar que optar por establecer contratos de corresponsalía bancaria internacional, puede beneficiar a los países creando alianzas estratégicas para participar en mercados externos. La mejora del marco regulatorio de los sistemas financieros mundiales, será clave para brindar mayor el nivel de confianza que requiere la banca corresponsal. De otro lado, el corresponsal Citibank cuenta con una gran cobertura a nivel internacional lo cual hace que todos los productos de financiamiento para el comercio internacional del Banco Caja Social sean competitivos en el exterior, lo que permitirá seguir manteniendo la alianza de corresponsalía que tienen ambas entidades.The Colombian international banking correspondent is analyzed, emphasizing the study in Banco Caja Social.

    El presente trabajo identifica el proceso de internacionalización de la empresa L’Oreal, caso Colombia, a partir de describir el sector cosmético nacional; caracterizar organizacionalmente la compañía L’Oreal a nivel mundial, latinoamericano y Colombia; para finalmente, identificar los procesos de internacionalización de dicha empresa en el país. Se utilizó una metodología con enfoque cuantitativo y alcance descriptivo, a partir de variables tales como: estructura organizacional de la empresa, activos corrientes, evolución de ventas, rentabilidad, endeudamiento, exportaciones, importaciones, eficiencia, competencia y balanza comercial. Los principales resultados muestran que el crecimiento del sector cosmético colombiano ha estado soportado por las compañías con mayor participación a nivel nacional, las cuales han identificado tendencias de consumo enfocadas hacia lo saludable, ético y medioambientalmente sostenible. Asimismo, en el mercado colombiano se pudo observar que gracias a las ventas por catálogo o comercialización multinivel, el sector incrementó significativamente. De otro lado, L´Oreal a nivel mundial es una de las empresas líderes en la industria cosmética, siendo su principal foco los productos destinados al cuidado de la piel y del cabello Su estrategia de internacionalización es la adquisición de marcas locales; en el caso colombiano, la compañía Vogue. Esto va de la mano con el modelo Jordi Canals, pues L’Oreal aplica estrategias de conocimiento del mercado local, imprimiendo innovación, tecnología e inyección de capital.This work identifies the internationalization process of the L'Oreal company, in the case of Colombia, by describing the national cosmetic sector; organizationally characterize the L'Oreal company worldwide, in Latin America and Colombia; to finally identify the internationalization processes of said company in the country. A methodology with a quantitative approach and descriptive scope was used, based on variables such as: organizational structure of the company, current assets, sales evolution, profitability, indebtedness, exports, imports, efficiency, competition and trade balance. The main results show that the growth of the Colombian cosmetic sector has been supported by the companies with the highest participation at the national level, which have identified consumer trends focused on what is healthy, ethical and environmentally sustainable. Likewise, in the Colombian market it was observed that thanks to catalog sales or multi-level marketing, the sector increased significantly. On the other hand, L'Oreal worldwide is one of the leading companies in the cosmetic industry, its main focus being products for skin and hair care. Its internationalization strategy is the acquisition of local brands; in the Colombian case, the Vogue company. This goes hand in hand with the Jordi Canals model, as L'Oreal applies local market knowledge strategies, printing innovation, technology and injection of capital

    El presente artículo analiza los efectos que ha causado en el sector textil colombiano la entrada de productos de China y la devaluación de la moneda en el período comprendido entre 2014 y 2019. Para ello se plantean tres objetivos específicos: el primero se basa en describir el sector textil colombiano y sus estadísticas para poder tener información de la situación actual, el segundo presenta las variables de comercio internacional del sector (importaciones y exportaciones) para poder obtener información acerca de la balanza comercial, y el tercero consiste en identificar los efectos positivos y negativos de las importaciones de productos textiles chinos y la devaluación de la moneda en la economía colombiana. Entre los principales resultados se logra evidenciar que las exportaciones del sector son inferiores a las importaciones, generándose así un resultado deficitario en la balanza comercial. De otro lado, las importaciones de productos chinos tienen un efecto negativo sobre el gremio textil colombiano debido a que ingresan al país con menores precios afectando la producción y economía nacional. Por último, al observar los efectos de la devaluación de la moneda, éstos pueden ser positivos y/o negativos. Los positivos se materializan en la competividad de las exportaciones, y los negativos en el encarecimiento de los insumos importados.This article analyzes the effects that the entry of products from China and the devaluation of the currency have caused in the Colombian textile sector in the period between 2014 and 2019. For this, three specific objectives are proposed: the first is based on describing the Colombian textile sector and its statistics in order to have information on the current situation, the second presents the sector's international trade variables (imports and exports) in order to obtain information about the trade balance, and the third consists of identifying the positive effects and negative effects of imports of Chinese textile products and the devaluation of the currency in the Colombian economy. Among the main results it is possible to show that the sector's exports are lower than imports, thus generating a deficit result in the trade balance. On the other hand, imports of Chinese products have a negative effect on the Colombian textile union because they enter the country with lower prices, affecting the national production and economy. Finally, by looking at the effects of currency devaluation, which can be positive and / or negative. The positives materialize in the competitiveness of exports, and the negatives in the increase in the cost of imported inputs

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
