Panama is strategically located in Central America, a few hours away from North and South America. Due to its excellent telecommunications infrastructure and multiple flight connections, it is a perfect country to do business.

The legal tender in Panama is the United States Dollar, which also presents many advantages for merchants. The government system is presidential, democratic and sovereign, and the country enjoys political stability.

The country's economy is based on a financial system composed of an International Banking Center made up of approximately 100 banks and regulated by sophisticated legislation appropriate to the recommendations of the FATF. On the other hand, the Colón Free Zone is also of great importance for the economy, being the second largest free zone in the world after Hong Kong. The Panama Canal and its lands present great opportunities for investment and Panamanian ports offer excellent facilities for multimodal trade.
