San Andrés, II semestre de 2005 (inglés)

Published every six months, the Regional Economic Report (RER) offers an analysis of the main aspects of the current economic situation in Colombia. It is directed to the various sectors of Colombian society, particularly universities, trade associations, government agencies and users of economic information in general. 

The RER is regional in content and covers the various geographic areas that make up the country. It is a tool for planning, assessment and decision-making at the territorial level, and contributes to the public’s understanding of the topics it addresses, which are macroeconomic, sectoral, financial and fiscal in nature. 

The RER originated with an agreement between Banco de la República and DANE, which is carried out within the framework of the Regulation, Planning, Standardization and Normalization Office (DIRPEN) to produce information on the country’s economic situation, primarily using the data being generated and processed at both institutions. Other agencies such as DIAN, chambers of commerce and governor’s offices have become involved in this endeavor as well.
