Canada to negotiate an FTA with Colombia

Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper said his country was ready to negotiate a free trade deal with Colombia. President Uribe and PM Harper met last July 16th to talk about the political and economic situation in Colombia, and the full range of Canadian engagement in the country. Canada is commitment to support Colombia’s efforts to achieve domestic peace and security and protect human rights. Both Governments are pleased with the start of free trade negotiations starting together with Peru and also agreed to negotiations on a double-taxation agreement. They anticipate mutually beneficial agreements that will strengthen the partnership between our countries. Most Colombians are dedicated to the core values of successful countries: freedom, democracy, human
rights and the rule of law. Canada shares these values and seeks to nurture them through its partnerships with Colombians. Source: PMO

US, Colombia agree on new amendments to FTA

The United States and Colombia reached agreement last 28th of June on amendments to the bilateral free-trade agreement sought by the Democratic-controlled Congress. "The US-Colombia Trade Promotion Agreement will contribute to our countries longstanding collaborative efforts to promote economic opportunity and development, peace, human rights, the rule of law, and security in this important region," US Trade Representative Susan Schwab said in a statement. The amendments to the pact agreed with Colombia in November 2006, demanded by the Democratic majority in Congress, offer guarantees of labor rights and environmental protection. Such amendments will be subject to new approval by the Colombian Congress

Colombia: Attracting Investor Attention

 

Fitch Ratings released last July 18th a special report titled 'Colombia: Attracting Investor Attention,' highlighting key macroeconomic factors and capital market reforms as well as sectors that have been some of the chief beneficiaries of these developments. 'Colombia's improved security combined with a stable macroeconomic framework has improved the country's long-term growth prospects, bolstering consumer confidence and transforming Colombia into an attractive destination for foreign investment,' according to Fitch Senior Director Glaucia Calp. Foreign direct investment (FDI) has more than tripled between 2003 and 2006, averaging approximately 4% of gross domestic product (GDP) over the past three years. During the same period, gross domestic investment (GDI) has grown from 17% of GDP to 23.5%. With GDI of 25.5% estimated for 2007, investment levels are expected to be comparable to those experienced in the mid-1990s.
