TL;DR
- Third-quarter economic growth in Colombia is projected to exceed 3%, a level not seen since 2022.
- Strong domestic demand, particularly household consumption and public spending, is the main driver of this growth.
- Sectors like commerce, industry, and services are expected to be major beneficiaries.
- A favorable calendar effect with two additional working days in the quarter also contributed to the boost.
- Construction and mining sectors are facing ongoing challenges, with projected contractions.
- Remittances and an improving labor market are supporting household income and consumption.
- Government spending is accelerating, supporting the economic recovery.
- Future growth is projected to gradually accelerate, led by consumption and later by investment.
- Some analysts offer a more conservative outlook, though still indicating positive growth.
- A key takeaway is that private consumption is the primary protagonist of the quarter's performance.
