Elecciones, crisis fiscal, PIB, inflación y tasas; marcarán el paso de la agenda económica durante febrero

TL;DR

  • February is a key month for economic indicators in Colombia, including GDP growth, inflation, and government financing.
  • DAVIbank estimates Colombia's economy grew by 2.8% in 2025, mainly driven by the services sector, but with heterogeneous performance across other sectors.
  • Inflation is a major concern, with expectations rising due to the minimum wage increase and potential persistence of price hikes.
  • Analysts have raised their inflation projection for 2026, suggesting the central bank may continue to increase interest rates.
  • The Colombian government has issued debt in both dollars and local currency to manage its finances.
  • A Constitutional Court ruling on an economic emergency decree is pending, which could affect government revenue projections.
  • Upcoming Congressional elections on March 8th add political complexity, with the need for consensus on economic reforms.
  • Global economic resilience is noted, but geopolitical uncertainty and market preferences for safe assets influence investment climate.
