Abstract

The security in the logistics chain under the program called Authorized Economic Operator (AEO), both in our country and of those that make up the Andean Community (CAN), is a less researched topic. The purpose of the present investigation was to diagnose the current situation of the AEO program in the CAN members. To analyze this, it was necessary to compare the benefits that customs entities give to AEO in each CAN country, as well as it was important to consult Ecuadorian exporting companies for their different views in the face of implementation AEO program in Ecuador. For the establishment of the AEO diagnosis, a descriptive and exploratory study level was used with documentary modality, and the quantitative method was used for the analysis of the exporting companies of Ecuador, based on descriptive statistics. The main results obtained relate to the amount of benefits granted by the Ecuadorian customs entity compared to those granted by the same entities in the countries that make up the CAN. As far as Ecuadorian exporting companies are in terms of, little is known about the AEO program.
