Colombia’s consumer price inflation edged down in February 2026, with the year-over-year Consumer Price Index (CPI) reading coming in at 5.29%, compared with 5.35% in January 2026. The latest data, updated on 6 March 2026, indicate a modest but continued easing of price pressures in the economy.
Both the current and previous figures reflect annual changes, comparing each month’s prices to the same month a year earlier. The February reading suggests that inflation, while still elevated relative to many central bank targets, is gradually losing momentum after a period of higher price growth.
The slight deceleration in CPI may offer some breathing room for policymakers as they weigh future decisions on interest rates and other measures aimed at stabilizing prices while supporting economic activity. Investors and businesses will be watching upcoming releases closely to see if this softening trend in inflation becomes more firmly established in the months ahead.
