La Bolsa de Valores de Colombia, espacio temporal y la World Federation of Exchanges - WFE

Abstract

Al analizar la evolución del mercado de capitales en Colombia, es importante reconocer no solo sus orígenes sino la estrategia de expansión a nivel local e internacional. Es a partir de 2003 que nuestro mercado de capitales se hace visible, en términos de estadísticas, en la World Federation Of Exchanges - WFE. Procesos de expansión y consolidación regional como el MILA, son el resultado del crecimiento económico, tecnológico y empresarial en el cual se encuentra el país. La llegada de nuevos emisores, tanto locales como internacionales, de renta fija y variable a la BVC viene afianzando la democratización corporativa y la confianza inversionista en el marco de la seguridad jurídica y financiera para todos los agentes del mercado de capitales, en el contexto de los acuerdos comerciales, incrementando de forma exponencial el mercado de divisas operado en SET-FX de la BVC.

When analyzing the evolution of Capital Markets in Colombia, it is important to acknowledge not only its beginnings but its domestic and foreign expansion strategy: there first were Bogotá Stock Exchange, Medellin Stock Exchange and Cali’s Western Stock Exchange until Colombia’s Stock Exchange –BVC, by its initials in Spanish- was born in July 2001. But it is not until 2003 that our Capital Market becomes visible in terms of statistics to the World Federation of Exchanges -WFE–. Expansion processes and the regional consolidation such as the MILA (Integrated Market of Latin America) are the result of the economic, technological and corporate development of the country. The arrival of new issuers, both domestic and foreign, with fixed and variable income into BVC has been supporting corporative democratization and investment confidence in the financial and legal security framework to all agents of the Capital Market within the context of commerce agreements enhancing exponentially the foreign exchange market operated by the SET-FX (Electronic System of Transactions and Foreign Exchange Market information) of the BVC.
