    Colombia 2020-2021: What are the main issues? and what to expect?

    Summary

    Global growth stabilizes in 2020 at low levels. On the local side, the economy will grow 3.2% in 2020 driven by internal demand, particularly from investment. Inflation returns to a decreasing path and interest rates remain stable in this context in 2020.

    Key points

    • Key points:
    • Global growth shows signs of stabilization but at low levels.
    • The US / China trade agreement reduces uncertainty, but not protectionism.
    • Current and structural global risks aren't negligible.
    • In Colombia, growth will continue to consolidate in 2020 and 2021 with a better balance between its components.
    • Inflation will gradually subside in 2020 and 2021, with an exchange rate at high levels. The Central Bank will keep rates until 2021.
