Recommended Colombian investment fund?

With what I think are the still general good outlook for the Colombian Economy, given the anticipation of Tourism Doubling (if that is true), and with the Re-Election of Alvaro Uribe - which I believe the media and especially the media around the tourist industry will put a positive spin on - and the prospects for the near term future, based on last years numbers for the economic growth, IS THERE ONE OR TWO COLOMBIAN GROWTH FUNDS that any of you veterans would recommend at this time? Do you agree or disagree with my outlook? Why, or why not? I think there is incredible potential in the coming year, (along with obvious risks, as always.)

This is another good topic This is a good topic and I wish I had the answer because there is going be a lot of capital investments in this sector. The closest I got to capital investments, growth funds, stocks and stuff like that is when I used to work for Mr. Jungers, I was forwarding letters of credit to Wall Street brokers and banks.

What do you mean? SurAmericana, who are they? Are they an investment firm in South America? Do you have any business contacts with this organization?

There is hope for those who believe, last night the Government announced over 40,000 jobs available for Colombians.
To apply for one of these positions, the candidate apply in several ways; one way is by visiting the government's website and acquiring a pin number for $3,600 or by calling the telephone number broadcasted.

There is no need to be sorry
I understand your concern, I do not know how much it is $3,600 Colombian pesos, but this is a government sponsor employment, nothing fishy about this!
I do not know why there is a fee for a website registration. I do not know if fee applies to those who fill the forms issued at the Employment office.
If you are interested in finding more information about job opportunities with the Colombian government send me a PM.

There is hope for those who believe.

Check Out these returns, especially 10 yr a/o LOF Here is another Pension insurance company that offers an easy way to invest in colombia. I'm in the 'Mi Reserva' part which is a voluntary pension and the funds I'm in have made me very happy.

Go to www.proteccion.com.co
In the left yellow sidebar under Pensiones Voluntarias, click on 'Valor de Unidad'
This pops up a chart where you can select a time frame and fund.

'Acciones Pesos' has had a good couple of years
'Renta Fija Largo Plaza' has a strong and steady 10 year performance
