FX.co ★ Colombia Inflation Cools to 4.82% in June, Lowest Since 2021

In June 2025, Colombia's annual inflation rate decreased to 4.82%, compared to 5.05% in the previous month and falling below market predictions of 4.9%. This represents the lowest rate since October 2021 and indicates ongoing success in managing price pressures. Significant reductions were noted in critical areas such as food (rising by 4.31% compared to the previous month's 4.71%), health (5.20% versus 5.34%), and housing (5.23% compared to 5.82%). Nonetheless, slight increases were observed in sectors like transportation (5.27%, up from 5.26%), restaurants and hotels (7.44%, up from 7.41%), and education (7.56% compared to 7.35%). These figures highlight that although inflation is on a downward trend, service-related sectors continue to experience persistent pressures. On a month-to-month basis, consumer prices only increased by 0.1% in June, which was lower than the anticipated 0.19% and down from May’s 0.32% rise. These developments bolster the expectations for ongoing monetary policy adjustments by Colombia’s central bank, should the disinflation trend continue.
