Resumen
To relate cashflow to the economic environment in which a business exists it is important to study and how the environment forms a context for investment, finance and operational decisions. The main aim is to determine the relationship between cashflow in certain service companies in Risaralda and the behaviour of the economic environment of the region over the period 2002-2011. Cashflow for businesses in the sector is shown and compared with macro-variables. The results show no correlation between cashflows and macro-variables.
