Colômbia Taxa De Juros

The Central Bank of Colombia kept its benchmark rate unchanged at 9.25% in November 2025. Four board members supported holding rates, while two favored a 50 bp cut and one backed a 25 bp reduction. The board noted that inflation in October remained above end-2024 levels and that inflation expectations one and two years ahead increased. GDP grew 3.4% year-on-year in the third quarter, above forecasts, driven by a 5.6% expansion in total consumption. Policymakers also cited fiscal uncertainty following the failure to approve the Financing Law and a current account deficit of 2.4% of GDP in the third quarter. Despite accommodative global financial conditions after further US rate cuts, elevated geopolitical risks persist. The bank reaffirmed a cautious stance, with future decisions guided by inflation dynamics, economic activity, and domestic and external risks.
