contents Environmental factors and entrepreneurial activity in Latin America Claudia Álvarez David Urbano Administración y Contabilidad Latin America Entrepreneurship institutional economics entrepreneurial activity Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the influence of environmental factors on entrepreneurial activity, focusing on Latin America, and using the institutional approach as theoretical framework. Through a panel data model with information from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor and Doing Business, we demonstrate that informal institutions, such as political stability, control of corruption and role models are related to the entrepreneurial activity. Likewise, contrary to the expected results, formal institutions, such as procedures and time for starting a new business, and business and entrepreneurial skills, do not have a significant influence on entrepreneurship in Latin American countries. 2011 artículo científico 1012-8255 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=71623420004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=716 Academia.
