Le surintendant financier appelle à une hausse de la productivité et de l'investissement

César Ferrari, surintendant financier de la Colombie, est intervenu lors du forum LR Economía verde más sostenible más rentable pour souligner la nécessité de changer le modèle de croissance économique du pays.

M. Ferrari a déclaré que pour atteindre des taux de croissance plus élevés, la productivité et le taux d'investissement doivent augmenter. Il a démontré que l'épargne nationale est passée de 18,6 % du PIB en 2005 à 6,4 % en 2025. Le surintendant a noté que l'indicateur d'épargne est instable et a perdu du poids dans la formation brute de capital. Avec un ratio ICOR actuel de 8,7, environ 80 % du PIB devrait être investi pour atteindre une croissance de 10 %. M. Ferrari a proposé de réaliser des investissements durables par le biais d'une banque responsable. Il a recommandé au secteur privé d'intégrer des critères liés à la nature et à la biodiversité dans les analyses de risque des projets.
