A pocos días de la segunda vuelta presidencial en Colombia, programada para el 21 de junio, la Federación Internacional por los Derechos Humanos (FIDH) publicó un pronunciamiento en el que expone una serie de preocupaciones sobre las propuestas y antecedentes del candidato Abelardo de la Espriella. La organización sostuvo que algunas de las iniciativas planteadas por el aspirante presidencial podrían tener impactos sobre las garantías democráticas y la protección de los derechos humanos en el país. Uno de los puntos señalados por la FIDH se refiere a las propuestas de seguridad inspiradas en el llamado “modelo Bukele”.

The Public Credit Directorate of the Ministry of Finance completed the cancellation of the total return swap (TRS) operation in Swiss francs and, according to the director Javier Cuellar, generated a reduction of US$10 billion in the country's external debt. This operation, which aimed to reduce dependence on dollar volatility to external circumstances (since until January 2025, 35% of the country's external liabilities were represented in this currency), meant that external debt fell from 18.4% to 17.5% of GDP between the first quarter of 2025 and 2026 according to the National Government's fiscal closing. Although the strategy also opened the door for the mechanism to be transferred to other currencies such as Asian ones, gross debt remains above 60% of GDP (61.2%) and saw an acceleration of 3.9 percentage points compared to the first quarter of 2025.

EconomicUpdate🇨🇴Colombia 🇦🇷Argentina44d ago

Colombia's largest banks reported significant first-quarter profit declines in 2026 after President Gustavo Petro imposed an emergency wealth tax on financial entities to fund relief for flooding in Córdoba. Bancolombia recorded its worst profits in five years at $525 billion for the first two months, while Davivienda's earnings fell 45%, and Grupo Aval took a $210 billion impact. The banking sector later negotiated with the government to replace the tax with financing commitments, though the damage to Q1 balance sheets had already occurred.

An economic analysis by Lumen Economic Intelligence shows that Colombian government spending accounted for 63% of the country's economic growth over the past three quarters, with GDP growth falling to just 1.2% in Q1 2026 if public consumption were excluded. The finding suggests the country's recovery is fragile, with private investment still 10.7% below pre-pandemic levels and fiscal deficits projected above 6% of GDP, prompting analysts to call for gradual fiscal consolidation.

A Strait of Hormuz blockade-induced energy crisis has paradoxically accelerated renewable energy adoption rather than driving a return to coal. Nearly 60 countries gathered in Colombia in late April to discuss phasing out fossil fuels, revealing that Latin American and Global South nations are pursuing energy transition more aggressively than developed economies, positioning renewables as a path to economic independence.

Colombia's Special Assets Society (SAE) has taken control of 11 luxury properties in Cartagena and Barú, including high-end hotels and event venues, as part of an investigation into alleged tax evasion and money laundering connected to the 2018 'Dubai Papers' scandal. The assets are reportedly linked to Belgian aristocrat Henri de Croÿ, whose name emerged from leaked documents exposing an international financial network that used the UAE and other tax havens to conceal wealth.

# Translation Companies in the country still seem not to be reacting to the cold splash of water that the minimum wage increase and labor reform changes represented. This was confirmed by the most recent labor market survey presented by the National Federation of Merchant Entrepreneurs (Fenalco), which shows that eight out of 10 companies stopped hiring following the minimum wage increase. According to the association, 80% adjusted their hiring plans for the rest of the year.

Si hay un escenario en el que ha habido debate entre los candidatos presidenciales Abelardo de la Espriella e Iván Cepeda, son los estrados, las autoridades judiciales e instancias internacionales. Mientras ambos —y sus fórmulas vicepresidenciales— se escudan en condiciones y asteriscos para hacer un debate antes de la segunda vuelta (domingo 21 de junio), la batalla jurídica está que arde. Contra Abelardo han fallado dos tutelas (la de la camiseta de la Selección y la de no usar la palabra “patria”), se divulgó una carta con firmas de exmagistrados hablando de una supuesta incompatibilidad de De la Espriella por tener ciudadanía de EE.UU.
