PANAMA Panama's
economy is based primarily on a well-developed services sector
that accounts for nearly 80% of its GDP. Services include the Panama
Canal, banking, the Colon Free Trade Zone, insurance, container ports,
and flagship registry, medical and health, and other business.
Economic growth will be bolstered by the Panama Canal expansion project
that began in 2007 and is scheduled to be completed by 2014 at a cost
of $5.3 billion - about 25% of current GDP. Superintendency
