AVAILABILITY OF CREDIT:
The availability of credit is essential to have a growth in the economy, specially for business and people to invest because there is a big percent of people that are willing to have a growth but they do not count with the disposable income to invest so the credits that the country has is crucial for having an active economy.

Focusing more on business credits we can see that the “microcredito” is increasing and this tell us that Colombia is supporting the small business and entrepreneurs can develop their ideas and ask for loans to achieve it. In this case for us it is very important because we can be more confidence that the availability of credit is getting better. For consumers is higher and it is obviously because people tend to consume and get debts no matter if they don’t have the money because they credits are available.
In conclusion we can say that the availability credits are high even dough the debts are higher than $165.7 billion at the end of 2016.
