dc.description.abstract | A growing literature has focused on the efficiency analysis of the drinking
water sector in order to influence the decision-making and regulation process in
the search for greater efficiency the service suppliers. This research calculates
the level of technical efficiency oriented to the inputs / costs of the service
suppliers drinking water of Ecuador at the cantonal level and analyze the
determinants of efficiency, for the period of time 2014-2017. This paper uses
parametric and semi-parametric methods, such as the Stochastic Frontier
Analysis (SFA) and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) with double bootstrap,
respectively. The results show that the suppliers service drinking water in
Ecuador could save the inputs or costs that they use, and still keep the level of
drinking water production used for the provision of the service to the inhabitants
of the cantons. Furthermore, the findings show that the level of technical
efficiency differs by the type of management -Public or Municipal Company - and
according to the geographical location -Coast, Sierra and Oriente region. Finally,
there is a significant relationship between the technical efficiency of the supplier
and a set of factors that includes the economic level of the canton, the density of
customers, the volume of water losses, the use of groundwater, the type of
management and the region | |
