URIBE MONTOYA, Susana and GAITAN GUERRERO, Loly Aylú. Impact of Foreign Direct Investment on the Colombian Hotel Sector. AD-minister [online]. 2013, n.22, pp.83-94. ISSN 1692-0279.
The main objective of this paper is to determine the effect of Foreign Direct Investment on the hospitality sector in the Colombian economic growth. This is estimated using a method that uses the Gross Domestic Product -GDP- per capita and its disaggregated data according to the different economic sectors, providing an ex post assessment of the contribution of tourism on GDP growth. The results show that Colombia has competitive levels in tourism contribution to GDP, although its level is low compared to countries where the sector is the most active player in their economies.
