TL;DR
- The strengthening of the Colombian peso against the dollar is helping to reduce inflationary pressures.
- This appreciation is mainly due to international phenomena, not solely internal dynamics.
- Colombia's economic growth in 2025 reached 2.6%, considered satisfactory, though the fourth quarter showed slower growth.
- Demand growth also slowed considerably in the latter part of 2025.
- The bank recorded its highest-ever profits last year, amounting to $13.9 trillion pesos.
- These profits will be transferred almost entirely to the government, with minor legal reserves for cultural investments.
