About this ebook

Colombia has a strong policy framework and fundamentals. Timely policy decisions have guided an orderly adjustment process to the large drop in the terms of trade experienced since 2014, aligning domestic demand with dimmer external conditions. Despite the growth slowdown last year and high inflation, poverty and inequality further improved. The current account deficit has narrowed significantly and inflationary pressures are gradually moderating. The banking system remains sound, but pockets of corporate vulnerability have emerged. The peace agreement with the FARC and the structural tax reform are important milestones that have reduced uncertainty and set the stage for a favorable outlook.
