Abstract

Este documento hace un recuento de la estadística fiscal colombiana. Sostiene que sería más realista presentar el déficit calculado con la amortización sobre la línea en lugar del tradicional calculado con la amortización bajo la línea; que el concepto del superávit primario carece de sentido económico excepto para los prestamistas; que el déficit consolidado del sector público es una medida enganosa de la situación fiscal y que la meta del déficit debe fijarse en términos del gobierno central y no del consolidado. Encuentra que, con cifras preliminares del 2003, el déficit fiscal del gobierno central continúa excediendo el límite estimado para mantener la deuda estable como proporción del Pib.
