Banco de la República (the Central Bank of Colombia, BanRep) informs that in June 2026 it made outright purchases of TES B in the market for COP 1,332.4 billion (value at market prices). These purchases were made in response to the difference between the projections of supply and demand of the monetary base, as well as to help in keeping the Overnight Benchmark Banking Indicator (IBR by its acronym in Spanish) aligned with the monetary policy rate determined by the Board of Directors of the Central Bank.
At the end of June 2026, the outstanding balance of TES held by BanRep was COP 38,490.9 billion (value at market prices).
