Abstract

Unlike previous years with a favorable international context, Bolivia faced a significant drop in exports and imports in 2009, impacting GDP growth. Exports fell by 14% in volume and 24% in value, mainly due to high dependence on raw natural resources without added value, low gas demand from Brazil, and the global financial crisis. Export bans and loss of preferential markets also affected results. Consequently, 2009 was a negative year for Bolivia's foreign trade, and 2010 is expected to perform similarly or worse unless there is a strong global economic recovery and new market openings.
