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.
