09-May-2026

Colombia's economy likely slowed its growth rate during the first quarter of the year, amid uneven performance across different sectors, showed a Reuters poll on Friday. It also indicated deteriorating expectations for growth in 2026 and 2027. • The median estimate from 15 analysts polled showed Colombia's gross domestic product (GDP) likely grew 2.2% for January through March, down from 2.6% in the same period last year. • The poll's median estimate was slightly above the central bank's technical team's forecast of 2.1%, which was revised this week from a previous estimate of 3.2%.
