Colombia raises rate 4th time, inflation forecast raised
The Central Bank of Colombia (CBC) raised its interest rate by 1 percentage point to 4.0 percent – the most aggressive rate hike since it began raising rates in September last year – and has now raised it by a total of 2.25 percentage points.
In September last year CBC raised its rate by 25 basis points and then followed this up with 50 point hikes in both October and December before today’s 100 point hike.
“This decision is compatible with the dynamism of an economy that has recovered rapidly and does not require the same degree of monetary stimulus that the Bank duly provided throughout the crises caused by COVID-19,” CBC said.
The bank’s board was split in its today’s decision, with five voting for the 100-point rate hike while two board members voted for a 75-point increase.
The board was also split in December, when four members voted for the 50-point rate hike while three members voted for a 75-point hike.
