Potencialidad del sector petroquímico de Colombia en el marco del Tratado de Libre de Comercio con Israel

Abstract

Free Trade Agreements are an adequate framework to strengthen both commercial and other relations between countries. However, the success of the FTAs ​​depends largely on the identification of the potential sectors of each of the countries. The Colombian petrochemical sector makes great contributions to the country's economy, has a large infrastructure and there is an important presence of companies in the sector. On the other hand, Israel is a state of an import nature. Even so, the key to these preferential economic systems is that there is some reciprocity or somehow mutual benefits; But this is not always the case because Israel and Colombia are very different economies, a situation that can lead countries to complement each other and meet their needs. For this reason, an analysis of the respective economic activities is necessary and thus identify the effectiveness of the Free Trade Agreement between Israel and Colombia.
