Resumen
Esta investigación analiza cómo una estructura financiera equilibrada influye en la
sostenibilidad económica de las instituciones de educación superior privada en
Barranquilla. A través de un enfoque cuantitativo, se evalúan indicadores
financieros, demostrando que una gestión eficiente y diversificada reduce los
riesgos y fortalece la competitividad institucional. Se proponen estrategias para
optimizar la administración de recursos, diversificar ingresos y fomentar la inversión
en tecnología, claves para la viabilidad del sector. El estudio se basa en teorías
financieras como el trade-off, la agencia y el pecking order, identificando
mecanismos efectivos para una gestión financiera sostenible. Además, analiza
casos de éxito de universidades como Stanford, Yale y Harvard, que han
consolidado modelos de financiación sostenibles mediante inversiones estratégicas
en mercados financieros y tecnologías emergentes. En Colombia, las universidades
privadas dependen principalmente de las matrículas, lo que las exponen a riesgos
financieros. Por ello, se destaca la necesidad de explorar fuentes alternativas de
financiamiento para mejorar la eficiencia operativa y reducir vulnerabilidades.
Finalmente, el estudio examina la estructura financiera de una universidad privada
en Barranquilla, identificando oportunidades de mejora y proponiendo estrategias
que fortalezcan su sostenibilidad y crecimiento en el tiempo.
