Summary: This thesis examines the effect of a novel facet of international trade-cio.internacional in intermediate goods on the relative demand for skilled workers over the unskilled workers, the study applied to the case of Spanish industry in the period 1986 -94. The analysis breaks down the effect of oubouring (outsourcing of supplies) on the relative demand for skills, according to the geographical origin of imports of impub between those who come from developed countries and that have been produced in developing countries . The main conclusion is reached, which suggests a possible reinterpretation of the results of genetic research, is that the oubouring developed countries have the same effect as oubouring to developing countries, both causing an increase in demand relative qualifications.

Summary: The entry of the company into international markets has gained importance increasingly noticeable in business strategy. The ability of firms to enter and to successfully develop its business in overseas markets requires the possession of differential competitive advantages, which are mainly dependent on resource endowments and capabilities of the company. So the purpose of this doctoral work is the analysis of the effect of the resources of the intangible nature (technology, human capital, organizational and reputational) on the behavior of the exporting company. The empirical study of the behavior exporter is a dualistic way. We analyze the decision and logit models exported by probit and intensity of sales in international markets through models tobit. These estimates were made with cross section data, but further refinement is done through analysis of transition, which shows some significant variations with respect to the cross section analysis, and therefore contributes to obtain more precise results and hence more robust reliable. The results of our work indicate that the technological resources and the resources of an organization are key facts in the conduct of the exporting company. With regard to the resources of human capital and reputation results do not allow us to say that its effect is positive and significant behavior exporter.

Summary: This dissertation consists of three articles dependents. The first article examines the impact of news announcements on the macroeconomic performance of the shares. It extends the known model specification of the performance of the financial assets of Fama-French introducing macroeconomic news. The database to carry out the estimates is to return daily 81 shares of companies listed on the Madrid Stock Exchange and macroeconomic news announcements given by the National Statistics Institute (INE). The second paper presents a model for the performance of financial assets in an international context. The goal is to find an alternative in time of the effect produced by Latin American capital markets on the Spanish capital market. The estimates are based on a model of changing the regime of Markov and the data used are the monthly returns of index-General of the Madrid Stock Exchange, yields ten portfolios of different sizes and yields of shares of major companies that have large Spanish investments in Latin America. The third article presents a theoretical model to explain the decision of a multinational company in becoming under uncertainty of the nominal exchange rate. Basically, it is a model of investment decision with the aim of explaining the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). It was conducted exercises and numerical results are presented to relevant topics in the field of International Economics.
