Colombia
A country engaged in large-scale infrastructure development; an extremely promising market.
Colombia is unquestionably one of the most promising countries in Latin America, from the point of view of long-term planned investments.
The country’s diversified economy, in fact, has been constantly growing for ten years now, at rates of above 3%, on average; it also features an efficient network of financial services and has long since launched an ambitious and comprehensive plan for developing its infrastructure.
The Government’s policy is to enhance the country’s competitive edge by overhauling and upgrading its road network to ensure efficient transport, thus facilitating access to markets and promoting the mobility of goods and people, while at the same time improving road safety and protecting the environment.
