IMF Cuts Colombia Growth Forecasts to 2.2% for 2026, 2.3% for 2027

The IMF has downgraded Colombia's GDP growth projections to 2.2% for 2026 and 2.3% for 2027, with inflation averaging 6% and unemployment at 9%. This marks a downward revision from prior estimates, reflecting weaker-than-expected economic momentum. The revision signals persistent inflationary pressures and labor market slack, which may weigh on Colombia's fiscal and monetary policy outlook.
