The regional risk index is a series of reports that analyses the levels of risk in the different regions of Colombia, assessing six key categories: security, politics, economy, institutionality, society and environment. This tool provides entrepreneurs, organisations as well as national and local authorities with relevant information that allows them to make more informed business decisions and guide public policy decision-making processes, thus impacting the attraction of investments in the country's departments.

Orinoquía

The Orinoquía Risk Index assesses the level of risk in the departments of Arauca, Casanare, Meta and Vichada. The development of the departments still depends on the political centre of the country. It was found that the departments geographically closer to Bogotá have a higher level of development and opportunities.
This pattern is repeated within each department, with the municipalities with the least risk being the departmental capital.

Pacific

The Pacific Risk Index highlights the region's vulnerabilities such as domestic political changes, the polarisation of society, the complex conditions of the armed conflict, the weight of structural social inequalities, corruption and the lack of land and air connectivity that makes access to Chocó, Cauca and Nariño difficult. Cauca and Valle del Cauca are two of the departments in the Pacific region that present the greatest risk for investment.

Caribbean

The Caribbean Region Risk Index assesses the least and most risky municipalities
in each department in the six established categories. It finds that the region's main challenges are the lack of connectivity, low investment in the port system, high
energy tariffs, water and sewage problems, and a lack of widespread industrialisation in the departments.

Andean

The Andean Region Risk Index evaluates the departments that make up the region on the basis of their investment attractiveness, challenges and opportunities. In general, the region faces challenges such as under-utilisation of river basins, lack of development of the railway system, under-technification of local economies, and clashes between local and national authorities.
