The Public Business Group in Colombia

The public business group is an example of how the business group, which is the preferred legal form of contemporary large enterprises, influences all areas of law. Indeed, when the State, in pursuit of its objectives, adopts the form of a business and engages in public group enterprise, the application of both public and private law becomes necessary. This occurs without prejudice to the profit motive inherent in the business, demonstrating that the coherence of the legal system, despite the diversification of law and the specialization in the issuance of legal norms, remains a fundamental principle in this context.
