## Frequently asked questions

****What is the FTZ regime?****
: Free Trade Zone tenants benefit from a 20% corporate tax rate (vs. 35% standard), VAT exemption, and customs duty benefits. Material for tenants in qualifying export-oriented activities.

****What is the typical lease currency?****
: Most domestic leases are peso-denominated with annual IPC inflation adjustment. International tenants increasingly negotiate USD-pegged rents on trophy stock.

****What is the Bogotá Metro impact?****
: Line 1 of the Bogotá Metro is under construction (target 2028). The Metro materially expands rapid-transit access to the southern catchment and reshapes long-term Class A location decisions.
