Resumen:
This paper focuses on the causal relationship between intergovernmental
transfers dependency of municipal governments, and the financial
investment in disaster risk reduction in Colombia, between 2012 and
2015, through the use of a model of structural equations (SEM). Results
indicate that intergovernmental transfers as they are implemented in the
current fiscal framework, limit the availability of free investment
resources at the municipal level and restrict the incentives for
accountability, which in the end negatively influence the financial
investment in the subject. From these evidence, the linkages between
decentralization and disaster risk reduction are discussed for the
Colombian case.
