ARIZA, John; CAMPOS, Germán y CARRILLO, Kateryn. Transfers and municipal development in Colombia. Prob. Des [online]. 2023, vol.54, n.213, pp.103-129. Epub 07-Nov-2023. ISSN 0301-7036. https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2023.213.69948.
This paper studies the effect of transfers from the General Participations System (SGP) on Colombian municipal development indicators during 2003‒2017. A Municipal Development Index is proposed, considering indicators of educational achievement, health coverage, and crime rates. This index is studied in the municipal context using spatial autocorrelation techniques. A panel-type econometric model was estimated to evaluate the effect of transfers on the index. The results suggest that increases in education, health, culture, and recreation transfers generate positive, differential effects on the index. Transfers to the health sector have the most significant impact on the index.
