    Summary

    Growth figures for the economy in the second half of the year will improve compared to those observed in the first half of the year, however, this will not be enough. It is necessary to take actions in the short and medium term to boost growth and avoid costly damages.

    Key points

    • Key points:
    • The two great challenges facing Colombia today are to grow more in order to increase the size of our economy, the size of the cake that we can share among all, and to reduce regional heterogeneity.
    • These two major challenges are opportunities for the private sector. Speed of action will be a key lever to bring actions to fruition quickly.
