About this statute

This provision states that Law 226 of 1995 develops Article 60 of the Political Constitution regarding the sale of state share ownership and measures for its democratization. This article says the law applies to sales or transfers of state-owned shares and convertible bonds to private parties, and to the State’s participation in a company’s share capital. Any natural or legal person may access share ownership sold by the State, and sale processes must use publicity, free competition, and broad participation mechanisms. This article gives special conditions only to listed groups to help them buy the offered state ownership participation. State share sales must be structured to protect public assets, and the proceeds must be added to the relevant budget for development plans unless they are parafiscal funds, in which case they go to the parafiscal purpose.
