Abstract

La valoración de empresas es una actividad cada vez más importante en un contexto globalizado, con empresas más dinámicas e internacionalizadas en busca de la creación de valor. La internacionalización afecta cada vez más a los países en desarrollo que se ven impelidos a tratar con operaciones de compra-venta internacionales y demandas de sus partners cada vez más especializadas, como es el caso de Colombia. Normalmente el método utilizado en la valoración es el descuento de los flujos de efectivo, lo que precisa el uso de tasas de actualización ad-hoc. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo principal analizar la aplicación de la tasa de descuento en la actividad de valoración de empresas en Colombia. Para ello se lleva a cabo un estudio exploratorio de carácter empírico, sobre una encuesta realizada a 32 expertos colombianos en valoración de empresas. Nuestras principales conclusiones revelan que los valoradores colombianos siguen pautas comunes a los valoradores internacionales, aunque se observa una gran dispersión a la hora de estimar la tasa de descuento. De esta forma el trabajo realizado puede ser de interés no solo para los profesionales de la valoración, sino también para los académicos y empresarios que estén inmersos en este proceso, ya que ofrece información sobre la realidad colombiana en un contexto internacional
