Colombia’s consumer price inflation edged slightly higher in October 2026, interrupting its recent easing trend. Year-over-year CPI reached 6.30% in October, just above the 6.29% recorded in September 2026, according to data updated on 9 November 2026.
The figures are based on an annual comparison, measuring price changes in each month relative to the same month a year earlier. While the move from 6.29% to 6.30% is minimal, it signals a pause in disinflation and suggests that price pressures remain persistent in key segments of the Colombian economy.
Market participants and policymakers are likely to watch upcoming data closely to determine whether October’s uptick is a temporary fluctuation or the start of a more sustained plateau in inflation, which could influence expectations around future monetary policy decisions.
