In this context, investments in dollars and abroad have become increasingly common, prompting citizens to diversify their portfolios in search of greater security and profitability.

According to figures from the Exchange Balance of the Bank of the Republic, Colombian investment abroad has increased by 80% between January and July 2024, compared to the same period of the previous year. This notable growth reflects a growing interest of Colombians in locating capital outside the country, allowing them to take a more optimistic perspective on their financial health.

Digital tools have made this process easier. In an increasingly interconnected world, carrying out financial transactions online has become simple and efficient. Fintech platforms allow Colombian investors to carry out transactions safely from anywhere in the world.
What to take into account when making investments abroad?
In this scenario, Pacific Bank, part of Grupo Financiero Atlántida (GFA) since 2023, is positioning itself as an attractive alternative for Colombians who want to invest in Panama. With a focus on digital, the bank offers a comprehensive range of financial services, eliminating the need for physical branches and allowing investors to manage their resources efficiently.
