Resumen
Los migrantes internacionales regresan a sus países de origen en altas proporciones. Este artículo analiza la relación entre la migración de retorno y el emprendimiento en el caso de México. Utilizando la migración rezagada en la comunidad de origen como instrumento, encontramos que los migrantes de retorno llevan a cabo emprendimientos con más frecuencia que los no migrantes, pero solo en períodos recientes. Además, los migrantes de retorno tienden a acumular más activos que los no migrantes. Sin embargo, las empresas propiedad de los migrantes de retorno tienden a tener menos de cuatro empleados y, por tanto, no tienen mucho potencial para la creación de empleo. Se recomienda una política de apoyo para la creación de empresas de mayor tamaño.
