Regulatory Policy in Chile - Government Capacity to Ensure High-Quality Regulation

One of Chile’s biggest strengths is its very sound macroeconomic framework that reinforces its economic resilience. This is partly based on a prudent regulatory and supervisory framework governing the financial system. Furthermore, the government’s Agenda for Productivity, Innovation and Growth, co-ordinated by the Ministry of Economy with the participation of other ministries and state services, constitutes a good opportunity to use regulatory policy as a driver to reform the policymaking framework of Chile. For example, Chile has already made substantive progress in making regulations more accessible and communicating administrative requirements. However, while in Chile national regulations provide the general framework for administrative procedures and an efficient state administration, the lack of a comprehensive regulatory reform programme has reduced the possibility of achieving even better economic outcomes and unleashing resources to boost productivity. The regulatory policymaking framework lacks some key features seen in other OECD countries (e.g. stakeholder engagement, regulatory impact assessment, oversight body) that would make sure that regulations are designed in the best way. Good practices in rule-making procedures are also rather limited. This review presents the way forward for improving the government’s capacity to ensure high-quality regulation in Chile.

Chile: Policy Priorities for Stronger and More Equitable Growth

Backed by strong economic growth Chile has made substantial progress in improving the quality of life of its citizens. Nonetheless, gaps in living standards vis-à-vis other OECD countries remain large and there are strong differences in well-being across the Chilean population. The government has introduced important steps to strengthen redistribution and improve equality of opportunities, including ambitious tax, labour and education reforms. But there is room to further improve the design of many policies to promote inclusiveness. Moreover, to sustain progress in well-being, Chile also needs faster productivity growth which stagnated until recently. This requires policies that foster competition, improve human capital accumulation and increase the diversification of the economy that still relies heavily on commodity exports.

Health at a Glance 2015: Key findings for Chile

Life expectancy in Chile has increased faster than in most OECD countries over the past few decades, although it still remains almost two years below the OECD average. Further progress in reducing risk factors to health (notably smoking and obesity) and improving access to high-quality health care would help achieve further gains in population health status.

Health at a Glance 2015: Key findings for Chile - In Spanish

La expectativa de vida en Chile ha aumentado más rápido que en la mayoría de los países de la OCDE durante las últimas décadas, aunque sigue siendo dos años inferior al promedio de la OCDE. Reducciones en factores de riesgo para la salud (en especial el tabaquismo y la obesidad), como también un mayor acceso a servicios sanitarios de alta calidad mejorarían aún más la salud de la población.
