FX.co ★ Colombia Industrial Confidence Falls in May

Colombia’s industrial confidence indicator declined by 1.0 percentage point month-over-month to -2.9% in May 2026, reflecting a deterioration in sentiment in the manufacturing sector. The drop was primarily driven by a 4.2 percentage point increase in inventory levels and a 2.1 percentage point decrease in production expectations for the next quarter. These adverse effects were partially offset by a 3.1 percentage point rise in current order volumes. On a yearly basis, industrial confidence weakened by 9.0 percentage points compared with May 2025.
