Investment (% of GDP) for Colombia in year 2010 is 22.369 %. Source: National Statistical Office Latest actual data: 2009 GDP valuation: Market prices Start/end months of reporting year: January/December Base year: 2005.

The latest year of data for national accounts at constant prices is 2007. Notes: Real GDP data for the period 1990-1999 have been adjusted by desk economist to account for breaks in the source data. The breaks are associated with changes in the base year from 1984 to 1995 and subsequently to 2000. Only pre-revision data exist for the period prior to 1995. Simple rebasing technique does not apply because even the nominal data were revised back to 1995. Using the pre-revision data, desk economist recalculated the constant price data for the period prior to 1995 so that y-o-y change of each component remains unchanged. A similar adjustment was made to the period 1995-1999. National accounts manual used: SNA
