Noticia del momento

El Documento sobre economía regional y urbana 'Política fiscal subnacional y ciclos económicos en Colombia’, señala como principal hallazgo que los gastos corrientes y de capital de municipios, y los corrientes para el caso de departamentos, presentaron una relación positiva con el ciclo económico. En el caso de los municipios, los recursos propios (tributarios y no tributarios) constituyeron la fuente de ingresos con mayor vínculo con el ciclo económico en este periodo, mientras que en los departamentos se trató de las regalías.
