Soho storm reveals resilience

Hoyporhoy La Prensa, June 7

ONCE AGAIN, the Panamanian economy demonstrates its resilience and ability to weather storms.

The sale of Soho Mall to Mexican investors confirms the confidence they have in the growth of our country.

This result was the result of a joint effort of banks operating in the local arena and the authorities of the Ministry of Economy and Finance, who launched a race against the clock to face a situation without parallel in Panama, generating options that no other country had previously achieved.

Now a chapter is closed. Its  lessons must be understood and widely studied

A country like ours, whose economy depends largely on services, always receives foreign investment with open arms . It is of great importance to maintain the highest standards of trust in the judicial system, the business sector and citizen security. Panama is on  the path of integrity and transparency. That is the clearest way to protect our economy from local shocks and  international scandals.
