Colombia’s consumer price inflation eased in May 2026, with the month‑over‑month Consumer Price Index (CPI) rising 0.47%, down from 0.78% in April 2026. The latest data, updated on 5 June 2026, indicate a moderation in short‑term price pressures compared with the prior month.

On a month‑over‑month basis, the “actual” May reading reflects the change from April to May, while the “previous” April figure shows the change from March to April. The deceleration from 0.78% to 0.47% suggests a slowdown in the pace of price increases heading into mid‑year, a development that will be closely watched by markets and policymakers assessing Colombia’s inflation trajectory and potential implications for monetary policy.
