The purpose of this paper is to analyze the relationship between economic growth and Colombian financial portfolio quality institutions during the second decade of the 21st century for forecasting purposes, by means of an econometric error correction model using quarterly information for the period between 2011-I and 2020-III, both of gross domestic product and of the gross and past-due portfolio of financial institutions. The estimation of the model was executed using the econometric program Eviews 10 with the intervention of two variables. The first one consists of the seasonally natural logarithm adjusted gross domestic product [LPIBD] and the second corresponds to the portfolio quality indicator defined as the ratio of the past-due portfolio to the gross portfolio [INCALID]. The results reveal that the variables are integrated of order 1 and are co-integrated, making it possible to estimate the model with three lags, which added to the unidirectional causality in the Granger sense, allowed predicting the portfolio quality of financial institutions for the fourth quarter of 2020 and establishing the short- and long-term dynamics.

The Contingent Valuation Method [CVM] emerges from environmental economics to assess the willingness to pay to improve or create a good or service for which there is no established market value. The objective of this research study is to assess through CVM a non-existent project, nonetheless necessary for water service sustainability in the municipalities belonging to the Department of Sucre in Colombia by replacing the supply of an aquifer source [Morroa Aquifer] with a surface water source. The used methodology, of an inferential nature, consisted of estimating a Logit binary choice model with cross-sectional information from an intentional survey using the referendum format applied to 117 people living in the seven municipalities involved. Results allow to establish the probabilities of the willingness to pay in various scenarios, as well as the estimated average value of the contribution of the inhabitants of the Sucre Department for this project. Conclusions point to the importance that the interviewees give to the proposed project, with high probabilities in the willingness to pay for which the territorial governments should formulate it and study its feasibility to implement it.

One of the fundamental pillars to put sustainable development into practice are the principles of circular economy applied to production processes. In Colombia, in 2018, the National Circular Economy Strategy was established in order to promote efficiency in the use of materials, water and energy, taking into account the recovery capacity of ecosystems and the circular use of flows of materials. In this work, the prioritized lines in this strategy and their relationship with the country's gas emission were analyzed to determine an applied multiple linear regression model.
