description The objective of this research is to compare the companies of the real sector of the economy and the entities of the Colombian financial sector for the year 2014, in terms of relative efficiency, through the application of the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) methodology. For a country like Colombia, belonging to the emerging economies, it is important to conduct this study to determine how far these two sectors are efficient or inefficient, given the importance they have in generating development and reducing social inequalities. We take as source of information the Superintendencia de Sociedades and the Superintendencia Financiera. 26,799 companies in the real sector and financial sector entities 254 were analyzed resulting in better indicators for the financial sector and within this, the insurance industry stands. However it is necessary that these two sectors improve their performance to the extent that only 2.6% of studied companies and entities are efficient.

El objetivo de esta investigación es comparar las empresas del sector real de la economía y las entidades del sector financiero colombiano para el año 2014, en términos de eficiencia relativa, mediante la aplicación de la metodología Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Para un país como Colombia, perteneciente a las economías emergentes, es importante la realización de este estudio para determinar hasta dónde estos dos sectores son eficientes o ineficientes, dada la importancia que tienen en la generación de desarrollo y en la disminución de las desigualdades sociales. Se toman como fuente de información la Superintendencia de Sociedades y la Superintendencia Financiera. Se analizaron 26.799 empresas del sector real y 254 entidades del sector financiero, lo que dio como resultado mejores indicadores para el sector financiero y, dentro de este, se destacó la industria aseguradora. Sin embargo, es necesario que estos dos sectores mejoren su desempeño, ya que solo el 2,6 % de las empresas y entidades estudiadas es eficiente.
