"Colombia has the second best economic portfolio in Latin America  
following Mexico," said Export-Import (Ex-Im) Bank director Fred  
Hochberg after meeting Tuesday with Colombia's President Juan Manuel  
Santos.

According to a press announcement from the Casa de Nariño, Hochberg  
emphasized the place of the Colombian economy within the context of  
Latin America. "Colombia is a very interesting site of investment in  
this moment," assured the Ex-Im Bank director.

He also revealed that Colombia is a key market for the exportation of  
goods.

"We have identified nine countries around the world that are very key  
countries for the expansion of our market of exports. In order we have  
picked; Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Turquia, Nigeria, South Africa,  
India, Indonesia, and Vietnam," declared the bank director.

According to the conversation with Santos, the work of the Ex-Im Bank  
in Colombia will focus on investing in the sectors of infrastructure  
and Small and Medium Businesses (PyME).
