    In this paper, we estimate a dynamic panel data model to determine the effect of various institutional factors on the performance of a sample of Colombian companies during the period 2002-2007. Our results indicate that the analysed companies are affected by these factors. Institutions associated with property rights and contract compliance have significant effects on the growth of the firms. On the other hand, financial development does not have a significant effect.

    (Scielo, 2013) Ramírez Hassan, Andrés; Cardona Jiménez, Johnatan; Cadavid Montoya, Ramiro; Universidad EAFIT; Universidad Nacional de Colombia; Universidad EAFIT.; Escuela de Economía y Finanzas; Economía; Estudios en Economía y Empresa
    This paper uses count and binary data models with an endogenous dummy variable to evaluate the effect of the subsidized health care program in Medellin (Colombia). The subsidized program, which primarily covers poor people, is found to have a significant impact on the use of preventive medical care and hospitalization that might have a negative impact on the financial statements of the program. Specifically, econometric estimations of health care utilization indicate that there is both selectionand moral hazard. These facts imply that the program can improve its coverage if mechanisms are created to lower the individual moral hazardeffect.

    The impact of subsidized health insurance on the poor in Colombia: Evaluating the case of Medellın
    (2011-09-05) Ramírez Hassan, Andrés; Cardona Jimenez, Johnatan; Cadavid Montoya, Ramiro
    This paper uses count and binary data models with an endogenous dummy variable, and propensity score matching to evaluate the effect of the subsidized health care program in Medellin (Colombia). The subsidized program, which primarily covers poor people, is found to have neither a significant impact on the use of preventive medical care nor hospitalization. However, parametric specification of preventive utilization indicates that there is both selection and moral hazard, effects that compensated approximately. These facts imply that the program can improve its coverage if mechanisms are created to lower the individual moral hazard effect.
