Inflation will be double

TL;DR

  • The Banco de la República's responsible interest rate hikes have prevented runaway inflation in Colombia.
  • The government is wrongly attributing the controlled inflation to its policies, while the central bank is criticized.
  • The author believes the SMLV increase will lead to inflation reaching 6.5% by the end of 2026, double the potential rate.
  • This situation creates increased costs for households, reduced company profits, and fiscal problems.
