Resumen
This work aims to evaluate the opportunities and threats arising from the creation of a free trade agreement between Colombia and China, identifying the impact that said treaty will have on the economic development of Colombia and its competitiveness in the region. We analyze the commercial and political relations of the countries, taking into account variables including China’s growth rate, which has slowed somewhat in recent years, and Colombia’s own slowly increasing rate of GDP growth.
The investigation is based on relevant data from the last five years, obtained from the DANE’s National Development Plan 2014-18, relevant economic data from each country and interviews amongst other sources. This information will allow us to evaluate the current economic performance of Colombia and China as well as the economic perspectives for each country in the coming years in relation to foreign trade. As such we will be able to evaluate the pros and cons of signing a free trade agreement between China and Colombia
