Abstract

This article presents a systematic review of the current state of the digital economy in Panama. Academic studies, government reports, and statistics published between 2015 and 2025 were analyzed. The results show that Panama has made significant advances in digital infrastructure, e-commerce, and electronic financial services, although challenges related to regional digital divides, low technological training, and insufficient regulatory frameworks persist. Advances in digital government and the adoption of fintechs are highlighted, while policy recommendations are proposed to promote a more inclusive and innovative development. This review aims to serve as a basis for future research and strategic decision-making in the field of digital transformation in Panama.
