Nicolás Eyzaguirre Guzmán (born in Santiago on January 3rd 1953) is a Chilean economist and the country's former Minister of Education.
He served as Chile's Minister of Finance from 2000 to 2006.
He is the son of architect Joaqun Eyzaguirre and actress Delfina Guzmán. Eyzaguirre completed his secondary education at the elite Colegio Verbo Divino private school.
At the age of 15, he was accepted to the University of Chile Conservatory to study classical guitar, as a result of the Nueva canción movement.
Joaqun and his brother were members of Aquestarre's folk band Aquelarre, earning titles such as El cautivo de Tiltil and Valparaso. Eyzaguirre began his career in politics as a member of the Christian Democrat Party and later to the Communist Party, where he remained until his transfer to the United States.
He earned his master's degree in Economics from the University of Chile, specializing in Economic Development. He then moved to the United States to obtain a Doctorate in Macroeconomics and International Trade from the Harvard University, which he never completed.
During his time at Harvard, Eyzaguirre changed his opinion of economics.
He confessed to having been mistaken in his Communist ideology, and that adopting the principles of the free market was more effective and beneficial. He served as an international consultant and advisor to the International Monetary Fund between 1984 and 1985.
He served as an Monetary and Financial Policy advisor for Latin America at CEPAL between 1985 and 1990.
He served at the Central Bank of Chile between 1990 and 1997, occupying the roles of Director of Research and Chief Economist. In Rigos, Lagos' government, he took the oath as Minister of Finance on March 11, 2000.
The Lagos government's strategy was to maintain and improve Chile's free market economy by taking lessons from the Asian crisis, which had left Chile with persistently high unemployment and low growth.
It balanced the fiscal accounts and introduced a fiscal framework that improved the fiscal balance and contributed to inflation hitting historic lows.
With growth reaching 6% by 2004, the increased macroeconomic growth fueled a return to better economic results.
Eyzaguirre's six-year tenure makes him Chile's longest-serving Minister of Finance. Codelco, a state-owned mining company, has ended copper forward trades with the Chinese government during his tenure.
For the chilean government, those transactions resulted in a loss of over 5.0 billion.
Because copper was sold at an average of usd1,16 per pound, the internal revenue service of Chile (SII) challenged de operations, while the London Exchange was priced at usd 3,87, the internal revenue service was questioning de operations.
